No urban lot split shall be approved in either of the following circumstances:
A. Prior Split. Any involved parcel has been established pursuant to an urban lot split in accordance with section 16.03.070.
B. Acting in concert. Any parcel where the owner of the parcel being subdivided or any person acting in concert with the owner has previously subdivided an adjacent parcel pursuant to section 16.03.070. For purposes of this section, it will be assumed that where a lot owner purchased the property from an adjacent owner who subdivided their property pursuant to this division within five years of the lot split, the owner is acting in concert with the then owner of the adjacent lot. However, acting in concert is not limited to this situation, but may also apply on a case-by-case basis.
