Normally the IBC allows for a deck under 30" in height to be built just about anywhere on the property. Regions, cities, etc. may have overriding rules.
So the problem begins with the covering structure. You'll likely have to get a variance or take it down. With the variance it will have to meet strict code. Open covers are subject to wind and snow loads that differ from enclosed structures. Read - engineering.
