Near a lake or a stream, the shoreline buffer limits where a building, a garage or a deck can go.
Wetlands and wooded areas
A wetland or a wooded area on the lot can change where you can build. An environmental study or a biologist can be added when needed.
Access and roads
The condition and width of the road matter for site access and the garage, especially in winter.
