[Amended 4-2-2019 by Ord.
No. O-19-18]
A. For corner lots (as defined in §
188-4), all property lines along roadways and/or rights-of-way will be considered front property lines and will have the required setback for a front yard per the zone in which it is located (except as otherwise provided). The following will determine the designation of the remaining lot lines:
(1) First: The front door of house will be considered pointing towards
the front yard and the property line opposite this will be the rear
yard; the remaining line(s) will be the side yard; if not applicable
then;
(2) Second: The address of property will determine the front yard and
the opposite property line will be the rear yard; the remaining line(s)
will be side yard; and if necessary then;
(3) Third: The property line with the most roadway frontage will be the
front yard and the property line opposite that will be the rear yard;
remaining line(s) will be side yard.
B. Any principal or accessory building located on a corner lot shall
have a minimum setback from both street lines equal to the required
front yard and shall not interfere with any required sight triangle.
Nothing in this section shall prohibit the placement of an accessory
structure within the practical side and rear yards even if said location
is between the principal structure and property line, so long as the
front yard setback and any other applicable setback requirements are
met. Practical rear and side yards are determined by the architectural
front of the house.
No area set aside for the purpose of meeting
front, side, or rear yards for one building shall be considered as
meeting the yard provisions of another building. On a lot extending
through a block resulting in frontage on two or more streets, including
corner lots, the building setback from each street shall not be less
than the required front yard.
