(a) Buildings on through lots. Buildings on through lots shall conform to the front yard requirements for each street. In the case of reversed frontage, an accessory building shall not extend beyond the setback line of the rear street.
(b) Frontage modifications. In the case of curvilinear streets and cul-de-sacs, the Board of Zoning Appeals may authorize a reduction of the otherwise specified frontage or lot width in “R” Districts along the front property line, provided that:
(1) The lot width at the building line shall equal the frontage or lot width required in the district where located;
(2) The front lot line shall not be less than 30 feet in any event; and
(3) Such reduction of frontage shall not result in a reduction of the required lot area.
(c) Average depth of front yards. In any “R” District, where the average depth of at least two existing front yards on lots within 100 feet of the lot in question and within the same block front is less than the least front yard depth prescribed elsewhere in this Zoning Code, the required depth of the front yard on such lot shall be modified. In such cases, the depth of the front yard shall not be less than the average depth of the existing front yards on the two lots immediately adjoining, or, in the case of a corner lot, the depth of the front yard on the lot immediately adjoining. However, the depth of a front yard on any lot shall be at least ten feet.
(d) Computation of rear and side yards. In computing the depth of a rear yard or the width of a side yard, where the rear or side yard abuts an alley, one-half of the width of the alley may be included as a portion of the required rear or side yard, as the case may be.
(e) Side yard modifications. Each side yard, where required, shall be increased in width by one foot for each 15 feet or fraction thereof by which the length of the side wall of a building exceeds 50 feet. This pertains only to the adjacent sides.
