Any lot of record existing at the effective date of adoption of this Zoning Ordinance or any of its subsequent amendments, which does not conform to the lot requirements of the districts in which it is located, is to be considered to be a nonconforming lot of record.
(a) Where there exists one nonconforming lot of record in single ownership, with frontage along a public right of way, such shall be considered a buildable lot for the district in which it is located. However, any use shall comply with the other requirements pertaining to the use and district.
(b) Where two (2) or more contiguous, nonconforming, vacant lots of record are in single ownership, the Zoning Administrator may require replatting to minimize the nonconformity. The replatted lots shall be approved by the Planning Commission and once approve, the replatted lots shall be considered as having met the lot size requirements of this Zoning Ordinance. The number of replatted lots of record shall at least equal one-half of the original number of lots of record.
