Is a building permit required for a storage shed?

Yes, but sheds of less than 400 square feet do not require a building permit. Sheds cannot be placed over easements and can only be located in the side or rear yard of a house but it shall not be nearer than the main building to any side lot line. Sheds located in rear yards shall not be located any closer to the rear lot line of the property than six feet.
