(A) (1) Any nonconforming lot of record may be used for any purpose authorized by the district in which it is located, except those uses that specify a minimum lot size.
(2) This provision shall apply even though such lot fails to meet the requirements for area or width applicable in the district, provided that yard dimensions and other requirements not involving area or width, or both, of the lot shall conform to the regulations for the district in which such lot is located.
(3) Any required variances may be requested pursuant to the procedures and standards of this chapter.
(B) If two or more contiguous lots, parcels or portions of lots or parcels are under the same ownership and do not individually meet the lot width, depth and/or area requirements of this chapter, then those contiguous lots, parcels or portions of lots or parcels shall be considered an undivided lot or parcel for the purposes of this subchapter, and no portion of such undivided lot or parcel shall be used or divided in a manner that diminishes compliance with the lot width, depth and/or area requirements established by this chapter or which creates a nonconforming structure.
(C) No lot of record that currently meets the dimensional standards of the zoning district can be divided to create a nonconforming lot.
