EXCEPTIONS AND MODIFICATIONS
§ 155.090 LOT OF RECORD.
   (A)   The owner of a lot of official record, which lot at the time of the adoption of this chapter does not include sufficient land to conform to the yard or other requirements of this chapter, may submit an application to the Board of Zoning Adjustment for a variance from the terms of this chapter in accordance with the provisions of §§ 155.120 through 155.124. The lot may be used as a building site, provided, however, that the yard and other requirements of the district are complied with as closely as is possible in the opinion of the Board of Zoning Adjustment.
   (B)   If two or more adjoining and vacant lots with continuous frontage are in a single ownership at any time after the adoption of this chapter and the lots individually are too small to meet the yard, width and area requirements of the district in which they are located, the group of lots shall be considered as a single lot or several lots of minimum permitted size, and the lot or lots in one ownership shall be subject to the requirements of this chapter.
(2000 Code, App. B, § 81)
§ 155.091 GROUP HOUSING.
   In the case of group housing of two or more buildings to be constructed on a plot of ground, not subdivided into the customary streets and lots, and which will not be so subdivided, or where the existing or contemplated street and lot layout make it impractical to apply the requirements of this chapter to the individual building units in the group housing, the application of the terms of this chapter may be varied by the Board of Zoning Adjustment in a manner which will be in harmony with the character of the neighborhood. However, in no case shall the Board of Zoning Adjustment authorize a use prohibited in the district in which the housing is to locate, or a smaller lot area per family than the minimum required in the district, or a greater height, or a smaller yard area than the requirements of this chapter permit in such a district.
(2000 Code, App. B, § 82)
