(A) Any lot or parcel of land recorded in the La Paz County Recorder's Office and lawfully created prior to incorporation of the town and having an area, width, depth or street frontage less than that required by the zoning district regulations of the zoning district in which such lot or parcel is situated, shall be deemed to be a lot of record and may be used as a building site, provided that all other regulations for the zoning district in which that lot is situated shall be applicable.
(B) The lots, tracts, and parcels resulting after the minor land division shall meet the requirements of the underlying zoning district. Including but not limited to the following:
(1) No lot shall be reduced in area so as to cause any open space or yard required by this chapter to be less in dimension than is required for the zoning district and lot in question.
(2) No lot shall be divided in such a way that any division of such lot shall contain more dwelling units than are permitted by the zoning district in which such lot is situated.
(C) A large lot or parcel of land may be subdivided into smaller lots provided such smaller lots conform to the lot size limitations of the zoning district in which the lots are situated; however, a parcel shall not be divided into more than three lots, or two or more lots if a new street is involved, without approval of a subdivision plat in compliance with this chapter.
(D) The division of land into two or three parcels and not involving any new streets or access easements shall require approval of a minor land division in compliance with § 154.122.
