Any lot legally held in separate ownership at the time of passage of this chapter, which lot is below the requirements for lot area or lot width for the district in which it is located may be used for a single-family dwelling if such lot is located in a district which permits single-family dwellings. The width of each of the side yards for such a dwelling may be reduced to a width which is not less than the same percentage of the lot width as the required side yard would be of the required lot width; provided that, in no case shall the smaller of the two side yards be less than five feet or the total width of the two side yards be less than 13 feet.
