Existing lots, structures and accessory development or the use of lots and/or structures which would not be allowed under the regulations for the zoning district in which they are located or under the other regulations of this Zoning Code shall be considered as nonconforming. It is the intent of this Zoning Code to permit nonconformities to continue, not to encourage their continued use or expansion and to require reasonable terms for their conformity.
(Ord. 29-16. Passed 11-15-16.)
(a) Non-conforming Lots: Any lot or parcel that does not meet the requirements of the regulations for the zoning district in which it is located or this Zoning Code shall be considered a nonconforming lot.
(b) If two (2) or more contiguous lots or parcels or combinations of contiguous lots or parcels in single ownership located in the same zoning classification are of record at the time of passage or amendment of this ordinance or anytime thereafter and if all or part of the lots do not meet the requirements for lot width and area as established by this ordinance in the zoning district in which the lot(s) or parcels are located, the lands shall be considered to be an undivided parcel for the purposes of this Ordinance.
(c) Lots in Combination. If a vacant nonconforming lot or parcel in any district adjoins one or more lots or parcels in common ownership on the effective date of this Zoning Code or applicable amendment thereto, or any time thereafter, such lots shall be replatted and such parcels shall be combined to create conforming or more conforming lots and/or parcels as a prerequisite for development.
(Ord. 29-16. Passed 11-15-16.)
The construction of a conforming structure and/or the conduct of a conforming use shall be allowed on any lot of record which has an area and/or lot width less than that required for such structure or use in the zoning district in which the lot is located, provided that all other requirements, including minimum yards and off-street parking, are met.
(Ord. 29-16. Passed 11-15-16.)
