A. Single Nonconforming Lots Of Record: In any district in which single-family dwellings are permitted, a single-family dwelling and customary accessory buildings may be erected on any single lot of record (see definition of "lot of record" in section 8-1-2 of this title) at the effective date hereof, notwithstanding limitations imposed by other provisions of this title. Such lot must be in separate ownership and not of continuous frontage with other lots in the same ownership (see subsection B of this section). This provision shall apply even though such lot fails to meet the requirements for area or width, or both, that are generally applicable in the district; provided, that hard dimensions and requirements other than those applying to area or width, or both, of the lot shall conform to the regulations for the district in which such lot is located.
B. Nonconforming Lots Of Record In Combination: If two (2) or more lots or a combination of lots and portions of lots with continuous frontage in single ownership are of record at the effective date hereof, and if all or part of the lots with no buildings do not meet the requirements established for lot width and area, the lands involved shall be considered to be an undivided parcel for the purposes of this title and no portion of said parcel shall be used or sold in a manner which diminishes compliance with lot width and area requirements established by this title, nor shall any division of any parcel be made which creates a lot with a width or area below the requirements stated in this title.
