§ 153.012 BUILDING LINE SETBACK.
   (A)   A building line to establish a front yard for all buildings and structures shall be established at a distance from the right-of-way of the street equivalent to one-half of the width of the right-of-way of the street on which the building fronts. In no case shall this distance be less than 25 feet.
   (B)   Lots that front on a cul-de-sac, or hammerheads, which have a mandatory 100 feet radius may use a minimum 25 foot building setback line provided the required lot width can be maintained. This setback would also apply to specially designed cul-de-sacs with wide rights-of-way and medians.
   (C)   The side yard setback requirements shall be equal to one-half the distance of the right-of-way of the side street. In no case shall this distance be less than 25 feet from the side street right-of-way.
   (D)   Lots that abut an interstate highway, parkway or other fully controlled highways which allow no direct shall have a building setback line from the right-of-way of said highway of 25 feet. This building line shall be the same whether considered as front, side or rear setback.
   (E)   Building setback lines, as established by this section, may be greater than these minimums; however, for purposes of establishing minimum lot width of a lot, this distance shall not exceed 100 feet.
   (F)   Variances may be granted where existing development on adjoining lots does not meet this front yard requirement.
   (G)   This shall not apply to the pump islands of gasoline service stations whose required setback shall be limited to a maximum control of 30 feet.
