I want to install a shed on my property, do I need a permit?

It's complicated! Sheds less that 200 square feet are exempt from needing a building permit but are still required to meet all setback and lot coverage requirements for your zoning district.  Sheds over 200 square feet require a building permit and also must comply with the Zoning Bylaw.
