§ 152.171  NONCONFORMING LOTS OF RECORD.
   (A)   In any district in which single-family dwellings are permitted, a single-family dwelling and customary accessory buildings may be erected on any single lot of record at the effective date of adoption or amendment of this chapter, notwithstanding limitations imposed by other provisions of this chapter.
   (B)   Such lot must be in separate ownership. This provision shall apply even though such lot fails to meet the requirements for area or width, or both, that are generally applicable in the district, provided that yard dimensions and requirements other than those applying to area or width, or both, of the lot shall conform to the regulations for the district in which such lot is located. Variance of yard requirements shall be obtained only through action of the City Planning Commission.
   (C)   In any district, if two or more lots or combination of lots and portions of lots with continuous frontage in single ownership are of record at the time of passage or amendment of this chapter and if all or part of the lots do not meet the requirements established for lot width and area, the lands involved shall be considered to be an undivided parcel for the purpose of this chapter; and no portion of said parcel shall be used or sold in a manner which diminished compliance with lot width and area requirements established by this chapter; nor shall any division of any parcel be made which creates a lot with width or area below requirements stated in this chapter.
