(A) Individual lots of record in residential districts. In residential districts, notwithstanding limitations imposed by other provisions of this Code, a single-family dwelling may be erected on a single nonconforming lot of record provided that it meets the following conditions:
(1) The owner of that lot, or a related party of the owner of that lot, owns or controls no other contiguous lots.
(2) The lot meets all other zoning district bulk requirements.
(3) As of January 25, 2011, a single-family house located solely on that lot was demolished or otherwise destroyed.
(B) Lots of record in residential districts owned by related parties. If two or more contiguous lots of record are held in common ownership or owned or controlled by related parties and one or more of the lots does not meet the requirements for lot area or lot width as established by this Code, then the lots of record shall be considered to be a single undivided parcel for purposes of this Code. No portion of the parcel shall be used, transferred or conveyed which does not meet the lot width and lot area requirements established by this Code. No division of the parcel shall be made which leaves the remaining lot(s) with lot width or lot area below the requirements of this Code. No building permit shall be issued for the use of any lot, or portion of a lot, transferred or conveyed in violation of this section.
