(A) Prerequisite for redevelopment. The below criteria are mandatory for any lot or lots used in combination to be entitled to the permitted land uses and special exception uses described in §§ 165.180 through 165.183. Additionally, an application to redevelop the lot or lots used in combination shall be filed indicating interest in “transition”.
(1) Minimum lot area. The minimum lot area required shall be at least one-half acre.
(2) Minimum lot frontage. The minimum lot frontage shall be 120 feet.
(3) Contiguity. The lot or lots used in combination shall be adjacent on at least one side, not including the transitional corridor (e.g., Chester Boulevard) or rear yard, with either:
(a) A pre-existing commercial or institutional development;
(b) A perpendicular road to the “transitional corridor”; or
(c) A previously approved redevelopment of land utilizing the TCO District standards.
(4) Commitment to reduce curb cuts. When the lot or lots used in combination have more than one curb cut off of the “transitional corridor” the applicant shall be required to reduce the number of curb cuts and width of existing curb cuts if unnecessarily too wide. The curb cut standard this division (A)(4) shall strictly apply.
(5) Protection of intent. The proposed development will not seek variances that supersede the intent of TCO District.
(B) Permitted and special exception uses. The list in §§ 165.180 through 165.183 represents the permitted uses and special exception uses for the TCO District. This list is only applicable to lot or lots used in combination which clearly meet the prerequisites for redevelopment listed in this section. The base zoning district’s permitted uses and special exception uses apply until a time the lot is redeveloped.
