        "text": "Local zoning rules, lot setbacks, and utility regulations across Hillsborough County and surrounding Tampa Bay municipalities dictate where and how additions can be built. Property setback requirements establish how close a new structure or bumped-out addition can sit relative to rear and side property lines. In addition, local regulations govern whether an auxiliary space can include a full-sized range or if it must be classified as a living space with a wet bar or kitchenette. Lot coverage limits and stormwater drainage rules also affect whether you can pour a new concrete slab in your yard.",
