§ 24-97. Nonconforming lots.  


Latest version.
  • A. 
    In any district, notwithstanding limitations imposed by other provisions of this chapter, a structure or structures and customary accessory buildings may be erected on any single lot, even though said lot fails to meet the requirements for area and/or width that are generally applicable in the zoning district involved, provided that the use of the structure or structures is permitted at the effective date of this article (September 12, 1984). Side yards, setbacks, parking spaces and other requirements shall conform to the regulations for the zoning district in which said lot is located.
    B. 
    If two or more platted lots or combination of platted lots or portions thereof which have a continuous frontage are owned by a single owner at the time of the adoption of this article and if said lots or combination of lots or portion thereof do not meet the requirements for area or width when considered as a single parcel, said lots involved shall be considered to be a single lot. No division of a lot shall be made which leaves the remainder of said lot with width or area below the requirements stated in the zoning district in which it is located.
