§ 157.088 YARDS IN GENERAL.
   (A)   The minimum yard space required for one structure shall not again be considered as yard space for another adjoining structure.
   (B)   No lot shall be reduced in area so that the yards or other open spaces become less than required by this chapter.
   (C)   On streets where a front yard setback has been maintained for buildings existing on lots or tracts having a frontage of 30% or more of the total frontage on one side of that portion of any street lying between two intersecting streets, or from an intersecting street and a corporate limits line, no new building or portion thereof shall project beyond a straight line drawn between the point closest to the street line of the residence upon either side of the proposed structure, or if there be residences, but this one side, then beyond the straight line projected from the front of the two nearest residences, but this regulation, shall not be interpreted to require a front yard of more than 125 feet, nor to permit a front yard of less depth than that of the nearest building. Where the street is curved, the line shall follow the curve of the street rather than to be a straight line.
   (D)   On a vacant through or corner lot, either of the lot lines abutting a street right-of-way line may be established as its front lot line, except that where two or more through lots are contiguous and a front lot line has been duly established, by the construction of a building on one of the lots, the same street lot line shall thereafter be deemed to be the front lot line of all contiguous lots. On a through lot, a front yard shall be provided along any lot line abutting a street.
