§ 153.084 NONRESIDENTIAL LOT, YARD AND HEIGHT REGULATIONS.
   (A)   No lot or yard shall be established or reduced in dimension or area in any nonresidential district that does not meet the minimum requirements in the table that follows; nor shall any building or structure be erected or enlarged that will cause the maximum lot coverage or maximum height regulations to be exceeded for such district as set forth in said table. A listing of supplements and exceptions to these regulations follows the table.
   (B)   Minimum dimension requirements; non-residential districts. See Appendix C.
   (C)   Size reduced for public purpose. When an existing lot is reduced because of conveyance to a federal, state or local government for a public purpose, and the remaining area is at least 75% of the required minimum lot size for the district in which it is located, then that remaining lot shall be deemed to comply with minimum lot size requirements.
   (D)   Utility exemption. Utility facilities, using land or an unoccupied building requiring less than 1,000 square feet of site area, are exempt from minimum lot size requirements.
   (E)   Setback reduced for public purpose. When an existing setback is reduced because of conveyance to a federal, state or local government for a public purpose, and the remaining setback is at least 75% of the required minimum setback for the district in which it is located, then that remaining setback shall be deemed to satisfy minimum setback requirements.
   (F)   In EU-L, setbacks do not apply when adjacent to property that is currently operating as a sanitary landfill, and the proposal is for an expansion of that landfill. The setbacks shall be met for any adjoining property that is not to be used for a sanitary landfill, or is owned by another entity or person.
