For the purpose of establishing front yards and further regulating side yards and the height of buildings near the street line, building lines are established as being twenty-five feet from the street line, except that where twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the street frontage on either side of a street between two intersecting streets is improved with buildings that are set back from the street line, the alignment of the existing buildings shall be the building line. Minor irregularities in such alignment of existing buildings may be disregarded by the Board of Zoning Appeals in defining and applying this building line regulation, or the Board may, when in its opinion the general purpose and intent of this section will be better served thereby, determine that the average distance the existing buildings are back from the street line, either for such entire frontage or for any part thereof, shall be the building line.
