No dwelling unit shall be built, moved or converted upon a lot having a frontage of less than twenty (20) feet upon a public street, or upon a private street or other permanent easement giving access to a public street. No building permit shall be issued for any construction located on any lot or parcel of land in the City that does not abut on a public street or highway. All access to a public street, or upon a private street or other permanent easement giving access to a public street, shall be hard surfaced with concrete or plant-mixed bituminous material, and shall meet the requirements of Chapter 1290, Off-Street Parking and Loading. However, this Zoning Code shall not be the basis for preventing the issuance of a building permit for ordinary repair or maintenance of any building that is already erected on the date of adoption of this Zoning Code upon a lot or parcel of land that does not so abut such a street or highway.
