with this chapter.
B. Where a lot is formed from part
of a lot already occupied by a building, any subdivision shall be
effected in such a manner as not to impair any of the requirements
of this chapter with respect to the existing building and all yard
and other open space in connection therewith so that all resulting
lots have adequate dimensions consistent with the requirements of
the zoning district in which they are located and so that all lots
