(A) Lot abutting street or highway. Wherever a lot abuts a street or highway, there shall be a minimum setback between the building line and the street or highway right-of-way lines as follows.
(1) On existing federal or state highways having or proposed to have a right-of-way of 100 feet or more, the minimum setback shall be 60 feet from the edge of the proposed right-of-way.
(2) On all county highways designated by alphabetical letters, or on any road designated or proposed to have an 80-foot right-of-way, there shall be a minimum setback of 50 feet from the edge of the proposed right-of-way.
(3) All other streets shall have a minimum setback a distance of 30 feet.
(B) Lot between two lots. Where a lot is situated between two lots, each of which has a main building which projects beyond the established building line and was so maintained when this chapter became effective, the minimum setback requirements on such lot may be the average of the building line of the existing buildings, provided, however, the building line of the lot shall not be less than ten feet.
(C) Lot adjoins only one lot having a main building. Where a lot adjoins only one lot having a main building which projects beyond the established building line and has been so maintained since this chapter became effective, the minimum setback requirement on the lot may be the average of the building line of the existing building and the established building line, provided, however, the building line of the lot shall be not less than ten feet.
(D) Minimum setback. Where the elevation of the ground at a point 50 feet from the building line of the lot and midway between the side lines differs ten feet or more from the curb level, or where the slope (measured in the general direction of the side lot lines) is 20% or more on at least 50% of that required in the zone provided the required minimum setback of such lot shall not be less than ten feet, a private garage, not exceeding one story nor 14 feet in height, may be located in such minimum setback provided every portion of the garage building is at least ten feet from the building line, does not occupy more than 50% of the width of the building line, and does not encroach upon the side yards.
