CCRE Article V

Florida Statute 720.3035

Policy
Chimneys, along with the other projections above roofing surfaces, play a dominant role in depicting the character of Queen’s Harbour.   Specifically…

  • chimney dimensions shall be compatible in scale to the structure; however, the minimum size shall be 2 1/2 feet x 4 1/2 feet. All exposed surfaces of chimneys should be of similar material to the main building.
  • prefabricated metal fireplaces are acceptable within a residence; however, the exposed metal flue must be totally covered with approved materials. No prefabricated metal spark arresters or metal flue caps may be exposed to view from the street.
  • decorative chimney pots or roof caps are encouraged. Gas fireplace vents through the roof are acceptable if they match other standard roof vent heights. If they exceed 24 inches in height, then a chase (chimney) will be required.
