[CC 1964 §701.250]
A. 
Front, side and rear yard exceptions are as follows:
1. 
Front and side yard requirements are subject to the provisions of any setback building lines adopted by the Board of Aldermen, Northmoor, Missouri, before or after the adoption of this Chapter and in the event of conflict, the greater setback requirement shall control.
2. 
In Districts "R-1", "R-2" and "R-4", where the frontage upon the same side of a street between two (2) intersecting streets is occupied or partially occupied by a building or buildings with front yards which do not conform to the provisions of this Chapter, or where the configuration of the ground is such that conformity with the front yard provisions of this Chapter would work a hardship, the Board may permit modifications of the front yard requirements applicable to the remaining frontage upon the same side of such street between such intersecting streets.
3. 
In Districts "R-1", "R-2" and "R-4", where the frontage upon the same side of a street between intersecting streets is occupied or partially occupied by a building or buildings having front yards of greater depth than are required by this Chapter, no other lot upon the same side of such street between such intersecting streets shall be occupied by a building with a front yard of less than the least depth of any such existing front yards, unless by permission of the Board.
4. 
No cornice shall project over the street line unless approved by the Board.
5. 
Buildings on through lots in Districts "R-1", "R-2" and "R-4", where such lots are two hundred (200) feet or more in depth, shall provide an equivalent open space in lieu of the required rear yard, provided that in any case where the rear lot lines are continuous through the block, if a through lot is secured by combining any two (2) or more non-through lots and their common rear line is eliminated or built over, any building on such through lot shall provide a court above the level of the first (1st) story open and unobstructed the full width of the lot and for the full distance between the projected minimum rear yard lines. It is the purpose of this regulation to secure adequate ventilation for the interior of the block.
6. 
Dwellings or apartments may be built in groups about a place or court with their rears adjacent to a side lot line, provided that:
a. 
The side yard shall be increased by one (1) foot for each dwelling abutting thereon or one (1) foot for each apartment entrance or exit abutting thereon.
b. 
The width of the place or court shall not be less than three (3) times the width of the side yard as required above, and where a roadway is provided in such place or court, the width of such roadway shall be in addition to that allowed above.

A minimum of ten (10) feet shall be allowed between buildings.
d. 
All other requirements, including front, side and rear yards of the district in which such dwellings or apartments are located, shall be complied with.

9. 
In any district, an accessory building, not exceeding twenty-four (24) feet or two (2) stories in height, or in any case not higher than the main building, may occupy not more than thirty percent (30%) of the rear yard, except that in Districts "C-1", "C-2", and "M-1", inclusive, if such building is not more than one (1) story or sixteen (16) feet high, it may occupy forty percent (40%) of the rear yard.
10. 
Buildings in Districts "C-1", "C-2", and "M-1", inclusive, used wholly or partially for business or industrial purposes, need not provide a side yard, provided that portions of such buildings which are designed or used for dwelling purposes shall provide on any floor so used, in addition to the front and rear yard requirements, open space equivalent to the area of side yards required for a building used exclusively for dwelling purposes in the district in which such building is situated. Such open space may be in the form of additional front or rear yards or one (1) of more courts opening to the street or rear yard; provided that:
a. 
No court shall have a width of less than ten (10) feet, nor less than one-fourth (¼) of its length; nor a width of less than two and one-half (2½) inches for each foot of height of the court.
b. 
The width of any portion of a required side yard as provided in this Chapter may be considered a part of such court.

For buildings on corner lots, the total open space required by Subparagraph (10) may be reduced by ten percent (10%) of the lot area.
11. 
No rear yard shall be required in Districts "C-1", "C-2", and "M-1", inclusive, on any lot used for industrial or business purposes, the rear line of which adjoins a railway right-of-way or which has a rear railway track connection.
12. 
In computing the depth of a rear yard for any building where such yard abuts an alley, one-half (½) of such alley may be assumed to be a portion of the rear yard.
13. 
In Districts "R-1", "R-2" and "R-4", where buildings on adjoining lots do not conform to the side yard requirements of this Chapter, the Board may vary the side yard requirements, provided that no building may be built nearer than three (3) feet to the side lot line and provided that the width of the building allowable under the regulations of this Chapter may not be increased.
