5.3.7 LOT PLANNING

D.   The depth to width ratio of useable area shall be no greater than three (3) to one (1).
E.   Grouping of wider side yards of no less than thirty (30) feet in combined width shall be encouraged to convey openness and privacy as well as create useable storage area.

No front yard should be less than twenty (20) feet in depth, measured from the property line to the closest point of the structure.
