   (B)   Public assembly buildings. To places of public assembly such as churches, schools and other permitted public and semi-public buildings, not to exceed six stories or 75 feet provided that for each foot by which the height of such building exceeds the maximum height otherwise permitted in the district its side and rear yards should be increased in width or depth by an additional foot over the side and rear yards required for the highest building otherwise permitted in the district.
