A projection is that part or features of a building which extends or projects outside of the enclosing walls. It is intended that certain building features may project into required yards but they shall be regulated so as not to substantially interfere with the receipt of sun, light, air, and use of adjacent lots as follows:
(a) Architectural features, a belt-course, balcony, cornice, gutter, or chimney may project into a front and side yard for a distance of six feet provided no part is less than three feet to any side lot line.
(b) Entrance features, an open platform, landing, steps, terrace or other features not extending above the first floor level of a building may extend six feet into a front yard and three feet into a side yard.
(c) Enclosed shelters, an enclosed entry or porch shall not project into any required yard area.
(d) Unenclosed shelters, an entrance hood, or open but roofed porch may project six feet into a front yard and three feet into a side yard.
