(A) A building line to establish a front yard for all buildings and structures shall be established at a distance from the street right-of-way equivalent to one-half the width of the right-of-way of the street on which the building fronts. In no case shall this distance be less than 35 feet.
(B) Any lot, other than corner lots, which abuts on two streets shall have a building line to establish a front yard setback for both streets. However, any lot, other than corner lots, which abuts on two streets and the street located at the rear of the property is classified as limited or controlled access (no access is permitted) by the governing body, the building line established along said street shall be considered a rear yard setback.
(C) The front yard setback requirement may be varied without Board of Adjustment approval for new residential developments proposed on existing lots of record in a R-1, Low Density Residential District, and R-2, Medium Density Residential District, where the depth of principal buildings on adjoining properties is less than the depth prescribed else where in this chapter. In such case the front yard in question shall not be less than the shorter depth of existing front yards on the two lots immediately adjoining the subject property. Corner lots shall conform to applicable front yard setbacks of the zoning district and commercial buildings shall not be used in analysis of front yard setbacks.
