Water storage in setbacks?

[jdirgo]

Its not supposed to be in the setbacks, but you're right, I've seen them there on some houses. If the tank is in the setback it is still legally an encroachment and you could be forced to move it.

And I've heard, but haven't yet verified in the building codes, that the cesspool or septic must be a minimum of 8 feets from any part of the catchment system (like the tank).
