setback
- The mandated space between a building and the boundary of the property it sits on, as outlined by local zoning regulations
- Due to the setback requirements, the new house had to be built farther from the property boundary.
- The local zoning laws enforced a 10-foot setback, leaving ample space between the buildings and the property lines.
- Violating the setback can lead to legal penalties, as it breaches zoning laws.
