Distance from the house to the border of the neighboring plot: SNiP standards for SNT and individual housing construction

• Laws and rules for the location of buildings
• How to take measurements correctly
• Location of the house on the site according to the standards
• Standards for the location of other buildings
• Other requirements and standards for site planning
• Penalties for non-compliance

Before starting active development, each owner needs to study the rules for the location of buildings on a land plot.
This will allow you to subsequently avoid conflicts with neighbors and all kinds of penalties from authorized bodies. Today we will talk about how to properly place structures.

Laws and rules for the location of buildings

To avoid unnecessary questions, we note that the current standards were created taking into account the experience of operating structures and were developed specifically to ensure the safety of health and life. That is, you need to follow the norms not because someone just invented them, this is a real necessity that can save you a lot of nerves, strength and health.

All standards for the location of the house and other structures on the site, which we will talk about, are mandatory or advisory in nature. The first ones must be fulfilled, the second ones - at the request of the owner. The latter include, for example, requirements that were previously in force but were cancelled.

Legal expansion of borders

If the owner decides to legally expand his holdings, he can submit a written request to the city administration to purchase additional territory. Often you have to wait a month for a response from the authorities. But it is also important to remember that you can only buy a plot of land that does not cross the red line. The red line boundary can be seen on a map from local authorities. When constructing a fencing structure around a private plot of land, it is necessary to adhere to the existing standards prescribed by law. But for the correct location of the fence, you must first conduct an objective assessment of the area and then the fence will not interfere with the free movement of pedestrians and the passage of vehicles.

The question of what distance from the road to the fence is relevant for every owner of a private house. Today, there are quite a lot of different standards that regulate the issue of the distance between the fence and the road, as well as between different structures on the site.

Location of the house on the site according to the standards

The rules for the location of a residential building on a site are regulated by several documents, namely:

• SP 42.13330.2016;
• SP 53.13330.2011;
• SP 30-102-99;
• PZZ of local government.

In accordance with these documents, the house must be located in accordance with the following requirements:

• at least 3 meters from the neighbors’ fence;
• at least 5 meters from the red line of the street;
• at least 3 meters from the red line of passages.

The roof of the building must be built in such a way as to completely prevent water from draining or snow falling onto the territory of neighbors.

When placing a building, it is also necessary to comply with existing fire safety distances.

How many meters from the road should the fence be?

The legal side of deciding where to install depends on the concepts of “road” and “roadway”, which in judicial practice are subject to a clear distinction:

• the road can reach a distance between curbs of 3.5 m, while it has both curbs and a sidewalk (in other documents - a pedestrian zone);
• the roadway (a place for the movement of vehicles that do not have shoulders) is established by the General Plan and territorial regulations regulated by decrees of local authorities;
• a passage is just a segment connecting parallel streets; ideally, the distance between its edges should be at least 3 m (so that a walking pedestrian does not get hurt when a car passes).

Oddly enough, other standards registered in official documents that have legislative status since 2010 are of primary importance in determining the distance between the fence and the roadway.

Previously, in the era of state standardization and GOST, strict adherence to them was a reliable guarantee that the necessary fire safety and sanitary standards were being met.

Location of buildings in SNT and individual housing construction according to SanPiN

A fence in SNT or on the territory of individual housing construction can and should be placed clearly along the border of the site indicated on the general plan of the land plot. It is also possible to move the fence deeper into the owner’s territory, but it cannot be placed behind it. This will be regarded as a violation and land grab.

Standards for the location of other buildings

The standards regulate not only the location of residential properties, but also the placement of buildings for other purposes on the site.

Bath

This is a building for economic purposes, the placement of which has the following requirements:

• at least 5 meters to the red line of the road;
• at least 1 meter from the neighbors’ territory;
• at least 6 meters from the windows of neighbors’ residential buildings.

The recommended distance from the bathhouse to a residential building on the same site is 8 meters.

Garage

Standards for garage location on the site:

• at least 1 meter from neighbors’ territory;
• at least 6 meters from the windows of neighbors’ residential buildings;
• compliance with fire safety requirements.

Upon receipt of approval, an exit from the garage can be created at the border of the site.

Well

In accordance with current regulations, the well must be located on the site so that it:

• stood no less than 4 meters from the neighbors’ fence;
• located away from large trees;
• was located no less than 15 meters from outbuildings;
• was at least 30 meters from the septic tank;
• was located no closer than 300 meters to major railways and highways.

Other buildings

Almost any structures placed on the site must comply with current regulations. Let's look at the most common cases:

Boiler room

Since the boiler room is an object of increased fire danger, its placement on the site, including its location to other structures, must be coordinated with the responsible services.

In this case, a fire extinguisher, sand and other essential tools necessary to fight fires should be located nearby.

Greenhouses, chicken coops and other outbuildings

Sheds must be placed on the site in accordance with the following standards:

• the distance to the fence is at least 1 meter;
• the distance to residential buildings is at least 3 meters.

Facilities for keeping animals are located at a distance from cellars and composting facilities - no closer than 4 meters.

The only exception is the dog house. It can be placed at a distance of 1 meter from any structure.

Distances from boundary

In accordance with the current standards for the location of objects on the individual housing construction site, the distance from the boundary to the objects should be:

• 3 meters - for residential buildings;
• 4 meters - for sheds and animal housing facilities;
• 1 meter - for a garage;
• 2.5 meters - for baths and toilets;
• 4 meters - for large trees;
• 2 meters - for medium trees;
• 1 meter - for bushes.

What can squatting of land for fencing lead to?

But, unfortunately, this does not always happen. There are often cases of self-seizure of territory that can only belong to the city administration. This may entail a number of inconveniences and negative consequences. The captured distance from the road to the fence is not included in the official plan of the land plot and, as a result of the examination carried out, a monetary penalty in the form of an administrative fine should be imposed on a person who illegally appropriated a part of the plot that did not belong to him. There are many cases when various communications pass under an illegally installed fence, which, if broken, require immediate repair. To carry out such work, part of the fencing structure may be demolished in order to create access to the faulty object. In this case, the owner should not expect compensation for the destroyed fence, since he himself is to blame for his actions.

Other requirements and standards for site planning

In addition, when determining the permitted location of buildings on a site in 2021, existing sanitary, fire and environmental standards must be taken into account.

Sanitary

These are standards designed to protect the health and lives of people, so they cannot be neglected. In accordance with them it is necessary:

• keep the house and cellar 12 meters away from animal sheds and outdoor toilets;
• ensure a distance of 8 meters or more between the house/cellar and the bathhouse;
• maintain at least 8 meters between the well on one side and the septic tank, toilet or compost heap on the other.

The same standards apply to residential buildings in neighboring areas.

Fire protection

According to the current requirements in Russia, the distance between buildings within the site must correspond to the following table:

You need to work with the table as follows: let’s say you need to calculate the distance between your concrete house and your neighbor’s wooden one. You need to find the intersection between A (non-combustible building) and B (combustible) - 10 meters.

Environmental

Their main purpose is to preserve nature. According to them:

• the building boundary must begin at a distance of at least 15 meters from the forest boundaries;
• It is prohibited to fence off areas for the beach or walkways on the coastline.

What should be the distance

Surprisingly, SNiP does not prescribe clear figures for what the distance from the fence to the highway should be. This is due to the fact that the land administration, dividing plots into plots, must independently mark the boundaries of the garden plot, which the owner can use at his own discretion, complying with the requirements of the law.

Therefore, when installing a fence on the territory of a plot, be it a dacha or a house in a village where a person permanently lives, you need to carefully study the cadastral passport of the plot, which indicates which piece of land belongs to the owner of the plot.

The main thing here is that the side of the fence facing the roadway does not protrude even one centimeter beyond its limits noted in the documents. By fulfilling these requirements, none of the neighbors will be able to make claims.

Penalties for non-compliance

Current legislation provides for penalties for owners who do not comply with these norms and requirements. If they are ignored, penalties may be applied to the person:

• administrative responsibility;
• fines;
• mandatory demolition of structures that do not meet the standards.

Compliance with the rules is not just an obligation, it is an opportunity to develop a site comfortably and safely. Regulations are created to protect people from many problems. By ignoring the rules, you endanger yourself and your loved ones.

FOODS FOR CONSIDERATIONS... | Topic author: Tuoma

Dear summer residents! The board does not have the ability to send extracts of minutes by mail in response to your applications.

Therefore, come and pick it up yourself, usually the document is ready in a week, you can always verify it by phone, during business hours. For some reason, there is an opinion that writing a statement when a controversial issue has arisen with neighbors is slander or snitching. This is not so, but just a formality, without which it is not possible to consider any questions, complaints, claims, etc., etc. Often people come up and spend hours sharing their problems, when asked, write statements: - Oh , I won’t write anything! Therefore, let's spend our and other people's time wisely. Edited by an administrator, Nov 24, 2021 at 3:06 pm.

Tatyana (Heartthrob) SNT "Belomor", Hello! You can somehow attract owners who keep fighting breed dogs in their dachas. So that they put muzzles on them when walking along the streets. Not long ago, a neighbor's cat disappeared. They let me out at night, she asked. And in the morning they found tufts of fur and dog tracks. The cat has been gone since Wednesday. I myself was recently walking with my daughter’s dog, he is small like a cat, he was attacked by a Shar Pei, he had to lie down on the Shar Pei so as not to bite the dog, his knees are still bruised.

The owner called him, but he doesn’t even react. What if a child was walking with a cat or a small dog, what could happen to the child?

Tamara (Kwantika) I assume that from this year 2021, waste removal costs will increase sharply because... It became impossible to burn garbage due to the firemen's conditions Natalya,

Olga (Zazilie) A recently planted tree was dug up on our site:( It overwintered without problems, leaves appeared on the first of the bushes. And wow, someone’s filthy paw dug it up, It’s a shame!!! What a people! You don’t know who and think!

Ivan (Betrys) Tatyana, Ask your question here: /> it will be more helpful

Elena (Atiya) Dear summer residents! A special appeal to those who have expanded their farming through alleys! Another fire inspection is just around the corner. And at the moment, even those who already have an order, have no reaction... We ignore that this is a violation, go straight to the fines, they are issued not specifically to the violator, but to the SNT. It’s probably worth thinking about where our membership fees go!? A miracle will not happen, the firefighters will not leave us alone and the problem will not resolve itself.

Tatyana (Heartthrob) Hello, please explain to me why we need security and entry strictly with passes???? What are they paid for???? They let all the cars that come into our alleys (go to swim, relax) through, leaving a lot of garbage. It’s not clear we pay for the roads, we also pay for security so that strangers are not allowed through, we also pay from membership fees. Let's remove the barrier and security, what should we pay them for?????

Folka (Kawikani) is sorry for the money for roads.

Anya (Loveday) Elena, good afternoon! Please tell me whether neighbors can block ditches at will. Like a downpour, we have a flood. Thank you.

Elena (Atiya) Anya, hello! Each case is individual, but definitely, the issue must be resolved! The procedure is simple, contact the board with a statement, only then, on the spot, are such disputes resolved, especially since this is not an isolated case. Good luck to you!

Elena (Atiya) Under the power line they are forced to cut down all the trees and bushes. Is it possible to leave the bushes and trees cut down in half? After all, for summer residents THIS is a barrier from cold air and frost.

Answer:

According to regulations, trees under power lines are removed. When trees touch uninsulated live wires, a large leak of electricity occurs, and this is not safe for the lives of citizens, especially in wet weather. The horticulture board was required to warn you about cutting down trees or oblige you to prune or remove them yourself. For trimming or removing trees under live wires, an order from a higher organization is not necessary. SNT is guided by the “Rules for the establishment of security zones of electric grid facilities and special conditions for the use of land plots located within the boundaries of such zones” (approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 160 of February 14, 2009). For 0.4 kV lines, the security zone is really 2 m, but (I’ll explain it in a simple way) what is outside the security zone and touches the line when falling must be cut down so that when it falls, it no longer touches the line.

Elena (Atiya) WHAT SHOULD THE FENCE BE.

The development and engineering arrangement of the territory of the garden plot is currently regulated by the set of rules “Planning and development of the territories of gardening (dacha) associations of citizens, buildings and structures”, approved by order of the Ministry of Regional Development of Russia dated December 30, 2010 SP 53.13330.2017.

In accordance with clause 6.2 of the specified set of rules, along the perimeter of individual garden and dacha plots, a MESH FENCE OR GRID WITH A HEIGHT of 1.5 METERS is recommended. By mutual written consent of the owners of neighboring plots (agreed upon by the board of the gardening association), it is possible to install other types of fences. A continuous fence on the territory of SNT is allowed from the side of passages and roads. From the neighbors - only with their written permission!!!! If you are not against installing a solid fence, this agreement must be drawn up in writing, otherwise, request the installation of a mesh fence in writing. If your neighbor refuses this option, you must go to court and prove that he violated your rights, in particular the right to use the entire territory of your garden plot for growing agricultural products, and your harvest has decreased, the cost of purchasing food has increased, and so on. .

Elena (Atiya) SNiP 02/30/97

6.7.* The minimum distances to the border of the neighboring plot for sanitary conditions should be, m:

from a residential building (or house) - 3; from construction for keeping small livestock and poultry - 4; from other buildings - 1; from the trunks of tall trees - 4, medium-sized - 2; from bushes - 1 The distance between a residential building (or house) and the border of a neighboring plot is measured from the base of the house or from the wall of the house (in the absence of a base), if the elements of the house (bay window, porch, canopy, roof overhang, etc.) protrude no more than 50 cm from the plane of the wall. If the elements protrude by more than 50 cm, the distance is measured from the protruding parts or from their projection onto the ground (cantilever roof canopy, second floor elements located on poles, etc.). When erecting outbuildings on a garden (dacha) plot, located at a distance of 1 m from the border of an adjacent garden plot, the roof slope should be oriented towards your plot.

6.8.* The minimum distances between buildings for sanitary conditions should be, m:

from a residential building (or house) and cellar to a latrine and a building for keeping small livestock and poultry - 12; to shower, bath (sauna) - 8; from the well to the latrine and composting device - 8; The specified distances must be observed both between buildings on the same site and between buildings located on adjacent sites.

Lyudmila (Jilleen) SNT members, be careful, a man walks around the sites, offering cement and power tools for sale, and after he leaves, the above items disappear.

Anna (Alva) Elena, what can I do if my neighbors’ roof is on my property and water flows onto my property?

Elena (Atiya) Anna, be sure to come to the board and write a statement. As you already correctly understood from SNiP, this is a violation, demolishing the building is unlikely, but it is possible to drain it. On my own behalf, I would advise that if your neighbors have not yet had their land surveyed, you explain to them politely that you will not sign the act of approving the boundaries until the problem is resolved.

Elena (Atiya) Anna, the land surveying itself is done without your knowledge, but when certain documents are ready, the signatures of the owners of adjacent land plots are required. That's how it was with us.

Elena (Atiya) Anna, in any case, don’t give up, write a statement, without this the board cannot resolve issues.

Elena (Atiya) Lyubov Trofimova Lyubov Trofimova Oct 11, 2021 at 0:06 I watched all summer how young mothers with strollers walk along the road. Cars are constantly driving, dust, noise. Is it really impossible to make playgrounds for children where children can play? On that 11th street the forest was cut down, looking at the stumps is painful and offensive. Maybe the deputies will give the children a gift and organize a playground.

Elena (Atiya) Alexander Bragin Alexander Bragin today at 10:25 Love, children should be at their dachas! And big children - wherever they want, some in the forest, some “for firewood”! Don't make up nonsense!!!

Distance between fence and roadway

It happens that the border of a land plot runs along a highway. Most often, entrance gates and entrance gates are installed in this place.

According to SNiP, the distance from a residential building to the edge of the road is determined by the master plan of the settlement and must be at least 5 m. Just such a distance is considered safe for those living in the private sector. Violation of these values ​​can lead to problems with fire inspection authorities and difficulties when registering with the BTI.

In addition, such remoteness increases the degree of noise insulation and allows, if there is a low fence, to get rid of prying eyes. And, in the event of an accident, the likelihood of damage to garden objects is reduced.

In the event of a fire, the threat that the fire will spread to nearby buildings is also unlikely if these standards are observed.

Expansion of land area

What should the owner do if he has a desire to expand his territorial possessions? To do this, he should contact the administrative body of his locality with a written application. The application must indicate the intention to purchase the territory of the desired area.

The application may be approved or rejected. If it has been approved by the authorities, payment for all material resources for registration will be the responsibility of the owner. An application may be rejected, for example, if changing the location of the fence would impede the movement of vehicles or cause any discomfort to the population.

Another option to realize your desire to buy a plot of land is to contact a realtor specializing in these services. This procedure is faster than the previous option, but the customer of real estate services will have to pay a significantly larger amount.

Consequences of land squatting

In addition to disagreements with neighbors, non-compliance with the planning rules for the location of the site, in particular, the deliberate or unintentional seizure of someone else's territory, can lead to the following very unpleasant consequences:

• If land owned by municipal authorities is seized, a fine will be collected from the person who violated the law. This can happen, for example, if a fence has captured a piece of land that was not included in the master plan and is located closer to the road than the norms allow;
• Sometimes it happens that communication lines are laid under the captured land. If problems occur and there is a need to repair the network, it is customary to demolish the structures and objects located in the territory under which the networks are laid. As for the fence, it can be demolished either completely or partially. What can the owner do in this case? Unfortunately, according to the law, he does not have the right to make claims for damages, since he himself is responsible for the illegal construction of the fence.

The number of meters of distance between objects and roads (street, pedestrian sidewalk) that must be taken into account to build a house
