No structure, or part thereof, shall hereafter be built, moved or remodeled and no structure or land shall hereafter be used, occupied or designed for use or occupancy:
(1) 
So as to exceed the maximum lot coverage percentage, the maximum structure height or the maximum floor area ratio specified for the zone in which the structure is located; or
(2)

All the lot area and all yards and other spaces provided in connection with any structure or use in order to comply with the provisions of these regulations shall be located on the same lot as such structure or use. No part of the lot area or of a yard, other open space or off-street parking or loading space provided in connection with any structure or use (including but not limited to any structure or use existing on the effective date of these regulations or of any amendment thereof) shall be subsequently reduced below, or further reduced if already less than, the minimum requirements of these regulations for equivalent new construction.
G. 
Obstructions in required yards.
(1) 
The following shall not be considered to be obstructions and shall be permitted when located in a required yard:
(a) 
In all yards: open terraces not over four feet above the average level of the adjoining ground, but not including a permanently roofed-over terrace or porch; awnings or canopies; steps four feet or less above grade which are necessary for access to a permanent structure or for access to a lot from a street or alley; one-story bay windows and overhanging eaves and gutters projecting 30 inches or less into the yard; arbors and trellises; flagpoles; signs, when permitted by § 185-18D; and sidewalks.
(b) 
In any yard except a front yard: accessory uses meeting the applicable minimum side yard requirements; open and closed fences not exceeding six feet in height; and parking and loading facilities, provided that a minimum distance of six feet is maintained between parking facilities and buildings.
(2) 
If any provision in these regulations requires a fence in a front yard, or requires a fence that has a minimum height in excess of six feet in any yard except a front yard, then such fence shall be a permitted obstruction within the meaning of this section.
(3) 
Private roads serving uses on other lots shall not be permitted in any zone.

I. 
Every new development that creates or generates five or more residential units shall deed restrict at least 20% of the total number of units as housing affordable to low- and moderate-income households as these terms are defined in N.J.A.C. 5:93. This requirement is unwaivable. Any effort on the part of a developer to produce less than a 20% affordable housing setaside is contrary to the public good and is a prima facie basis for the reviewing board to deny the development application in full. All such affordable housing generated pursuant to this provision shall fully comply with Teterboro's Affordable Housing Ordinance[1] and the Uniform Housing Affordability Controls rules (N.J.A.C. 5:80-26.1 et seq.). This provision does not give any developer the right to any rezoning, variance or other relief, or establish any obligation on the part of Teterboro or its boards and agencies to grant such rezoning, variance or other relief to a developer.
