Paul:

That usually only applies if they are on separate lots or arranged so that
in the future they could be separated and sold as separate properties. These
additions don't appear to meet those concerns. I usually like to look at the
other building services.

Is the electric a separate service?
Is the sewer and storm from this new structure a separate service.
Is the phone to this structure a separate service.
Does it have its own gas and electric meters?
Does it have its own water meter?
Could it easily become a separate building, or property for sale?

One last thing to keep in mind is that some water companies demand separate
services if they are considered separate buildings; that
supersedes the requirements of NFPA 13.
