§ 54-206. Additional standards and specifications.  


Latest version.
  • In addition to the size regulations set forth in section 54-205, the following standards and specifications shall apply unless otherwise provided in this chapter:

    (1)

    On lots fronting on two non-intersecting streets, a front yard must be provided on both streets.

    (2)

    On corner lots in the R district, there shall be a yard along the side street side of such tract of at least 15 feet, except that, in the case of separate tracts which are less than 75 feet in width, only 20 percent of the width of the lot need be provided for such side yard, so long as the buildable width of a corner lot shall not be less than 30 feet.

    (3)

    On corner lots in C and M districts, there shall be a yard along the side street side of such tract which is equal in width to the depth required for the front yard of such adjacent lot. In those instances where the area adjacent to the rear yard of a corner lot in an R district had not been developed or the preliminary plat for such area has not been approved, such corner lot shall provide a side yard along the side street of at least 15 feet.

    (4)

    On corner lots in the C and M districts that rear upon an R district, a ten-foot yard must be provided along the side street side.

    (5)

    Where a block frontage is divided among districts with different front yard requirements, the deepest front yard as required by this chapter shall apply to the entire frontage.

    (6)

    Where a lot is in a C or M district and is next to an R district, the side or rear yard required in that R district must be provided along the boundary line.

    (7)

    In the C and M districts, there may be more than one commercial or industrial building on a lot, provided that the required yards be maintained around the group of buildings.

    (8)

    Dwelling uses, except hotels, located in the C and M districts must provide the yards required in the R-2 district.
