How the edge reads from rear line to house
Depth measured rear arc → house rear wall (real survey)
| Scenario | Yard depth | Pool zone | Max pool width* |
|---|
*Max pool width (N–S) = pool zone − (1′ coping + chosen turf) on both sides. E–W length limited by side setbacks (5′ each); pool drawn at the measured ~26′ and can extend toward the common-area side.
| Item | v1 (4/1) | v2 (4/2, “4.4 early”) | Effect of your moves |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pool | 14′ × 10′ plunge | 26′ × 10′ lap + 6′×6′ spa | Same 10′ width; v2 stretched E–W & added spa |
| Pool position | ~10.7′ off rear arc | ~5.6′ off rear arc (moved north) | Pushed toward common area to open the house-side deck |
| Rear-yard depth | ~22–24′ rear arc → house rear (porch screen wall) | +5′ foundation forward → deeper yard | |
| Pool-buildable depth | ~17–19′ (from 5′ accessory line to house) | +5′ fwd +5′ variance → ~27′ | |
Pools/spas are accessory structures → they answer to the 5′ free-standing accessory setback, not the 10′ rear building setback. So a 5′ variance on that line, stacked on the 5′ the foundation shift gives you, roughly +50% usable pool depth with the backyard still abutting common area (no neighbor behind). Front 15′ setback is the limit on how far the house can actually slide forward — confirm slack at the porch/parking before counting on the full 5′.
