§ 158.415 NON-CONFORMING LOTS OF RECORD.
   (A)   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 at the effective date of adoption or amendment of this chapter notwithstanding limitations imposed by other provisions of this chapter. The lot must be in separate ownership and not of continuous frontage with other lots in the same ownership. This provision shall apply even though the lot fails to meet the requirements for area or width, or both, of the lot shall conform to the regulations for the district in which the lot is located. Variance of yard requirements shall be obtained only through action of the Board of Adjustment.
   (B)   If two or more lots or combinations of lots and portions of lots with continuous frontage in single ownership are of record at the time of passage or amendment of this chapter and if all or part of the lots 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 chapter and no portion of the parcel shall be used or sold in manner which diminishes compliance with lot width and area requirements establishments by this chapter nor shall any division or any parcel be made which creates a lot with width or area below the requirements stated in this chapter.
