Dégagement minimal exigé par règlement le long d'une ligne latérale d'un terrain, entre sa ligne [avant] et sa ligne arrière. Le terme "marge" comporte un élément réglementaire qui n'est pas inhérent à la notion de "side yard" ou de "cour latérale"; par contre, il est plus juste de s'exprimer en termes de "marge" que de "cour" pour désigner cette notion en français.
