This category of nonconformance consists of vacant lots for which plats or deeds have been recorded in the County Register of Deeds’ office, which at the time of the adoption of this chapter fail to comply with the minimum area or dimensional requirements of the districts in which they are located. Any such nonconforming lot may be used for any of the uses permitted in the district in which it is located, provided that all dimensional requirements for the proposed uses and structured can be met. When said nonconforming lot meets all dimensional requirements, the Zoning Administrator is authorized to issue a certificate of zoning compliance. Where one or more dimensional requirements cannot be met, the Board of Adjustment may approve as a variance such dimensions as will conform as closely as possible to the required dimensions.
