For a lot with a lot area of two acres or more and containing a dwelling with a floor area in excess of 10,000 square feet, the aggregate of the two side yards and the minimum one side yard shall be determined as provided for in Subsection F below.
C.
For a main building other than a dwelling, each side
yard shall be not less than 50 feet at any point, but a greater side
yard may be required by the Board of Appeals in passing upon an application

(1)
Two-story dwelling and higher: building type factor
= .00075.
|
Example:
Total minimum aggregate of the two side yards

Minimum one side yard = total aggregate of the
two side yards * (1/3) feet

(2)
One-story and one-and-one-half-story dwelling: building
type factor = 0.0105.

Example:
Total minimum aggregate of the two side-yards
= 75 ft + (Floor Area in sq. ft. - 10,000) * 0.0105) ft.
Minimum one side yard = total aggregate of the
two side yards * (1/3) ft
