§ 70-47.1. Lot width.  


Latest version.
  • A. 
    No single-family dwelling shall be constructed on a lot unless it has a minimum lot width of 40 feet at the required front setback line. A minimum lot width of 35 feet shall be maintained at all points between the property line at the street and the front setback line.
    B. 
    No two-family dwelling shall be constructed on a lot unless it has a minimum lot width of 80 feet at the required front setback line. A minimum lot width of 50 feet shall be maintained at all points between the property line at the street and the front setback line.
    C. 
    No other main building permitted as set forth in § 70-44 and not used for residence purposes shall be constructed on a lot unless it has a minimum lot width of 50 feet.
    D. 
    The minimum lot width shall be the same as the average lot width of existing lots within 200 feet on each side of the lot within the same blockfront(s) and district, or the minimums required in A, B or C above as applicable, whichever is greater. For lots within 200 feet of an intersection, the blockfront shall be assumed to continue across the intersection, excluding the width of the intersection.
    E. 
    For corner lots, the minimum lot width shall be calculated separately for each blockfront, and the greater of the two shall prevail.
    F. 
    Where a blockfront consists of a mix of single-family and two-family dwellings, conforming lots containing two-family dwellings shall be counted as two single-family lots to determine the average lot width.
    G. 
    No single-family lot shall be required to exceed 80 feet in lot width, nor shall any other lot be required to exceed 160 feet in lot width.
