The following provisions shall apply to all districts unless otherwise specified.
The Official Zoning Map of the Town of Frye Island, dated December 1997, and as subsequently amended, is hereby adopted as a part of this Zoning Ordinance and shall be the final authority as to the current zoning status of the land and water areas, buildings, and other structures in the Town.
A.
District boundaries shown within the lines of roads, streams, and transportation rights-of-way shall be deemed to follow the center lines. The abandonment and nonuse of roads shall not affect the location of such district boundaries. When the Code Enforcement Officer cannot definitely determine the location of such district boundary, he shall refuse action, and the Board of Appeals, upon appeal, shall interpret the location of the district boundary with reference to the scale of the Zoning Map and the purposes set forth in all relevant provisions of this Part 1.
B.
If a district boundary divides a lot, the provisions of the least restrictive district may apply for a distance of up to 50 feet into the more restrictive district.
A.
Corner lots.
(1)
Front setbacks shall be defined as follows:
(a)
Where a corner lot has more than one contiguous side abutting a street and each of the sides abutting a street has approximately the same length (that is, the shortest of said sides abutting a street has a length at least 95% the length of the longest of said sides abutting a street), the lot shall provide the required front setback along every such street.
(b)
Where one of the sides abutting upon a street is shorter than the other side(s) abutting upon a street, for the purposes of this section the shorter side shall be deemed the front regardless of the direction in which any buildings may face, and the front building setback shall be as specified for that size lot.
(2)
Side setbacks shall be defined as follows:
(a)
Where the width of the lot as viewed from said shorter side is less than 100 feet, the building setback from streets other than the front shall be 30 feet.
(b)
Where the width of the lot is between 100 feet and 120 feet, the building setback from streets other than the front shall be 40 feet.
(c)
Where the width of the lot is at least 120 feet, the building setback from streets other than the front shall be as specified for front building setback for that size lot.
(3)
Where an owner of a corner lot believes that the thirty-foot or forty-foot setback requirement will render appropriate use of the property for a single-family dwelling difficult, such owner may request a special exception upon proof of notification to all abutters. Such special exception shall require approval only by the Board of Appeals.
B.
Nonconforming lots.
[Amended 10-11-2003 TM by Art. 11]
(1)
A single lot of record which fails to meet the requirements for area or width, or both, that are generally applicable in the district may be built upon subject to the following conditions and restrictions:
(a)
The lot must have been in ownership separate from that of all lots and parcels contiguous to it prior to the date on which the lot became nonconforming by reason of adoption or amendment of this Part 1.
(b)
It must not share a common property line with other such lots in the same ownership.
(c)
Yard and other requirements not involving area or width must conform to the regulations for the district in which the lot is located, except that said lot need not have adequate street frontage so long as there is either a public or private vehicular accessway to the lot.
(d)
No more than one single-family dwelling may be built upon such single lot.
(e)
Variance of area, width and yard requirements shall be obtained only through action of the Board of Appeals.
(2)
Contiguous lots, vacant or partially built. If any of two or more contiguous lots under single or joint ownership fails to meet the dimensional requirements of this Part 1 or subsequent amendments, and if one or more of the lots are vacant or contain(s) only an accessory building, then the lots shall be combined to the extent necessary to meet all dimensional requirements. This subsection is intended to apply to all lots, whether shown on a recorded plan or not. It is specifically intended that this provision shall require the merger of improved lots with unimproved lots and is not limited to merging unimproved lots only. Contiguous lots each containing a dwelling unit prior to becoming nonconforming or prior to coming under common ownership shall not be merged.
C.
Back lots.
(1)
Access.

Record of said accessway shall be recorded as part of the deed of each lot user on file with the Cumberland County Registry of Deeds.
(d)
Accessway entrance to a street shall conform to standards of Part 2, Subdivision, and shall be approved by the Public Works Director.
(e)
The issuance of a building permit for a single-family dwelling on a back lot shall in no way be construed to imply the acceptance of any accessway for the purpose of maintenance or improvements by the Town of Frye Island.
(2)
Frontage. Frontage equal to the street frontage required for the zoning district shall be required along the accessway.
(3)
Lot size.
(a)
Any back lot shall be equal to or greater than the minimum lot size dimensions required for the zoning district. Computation of minimum lot size area shall not include any portion of the area devoted to an accessway.
(b)
The side of the lot nearest and generally parallel to the road to which the back lot accessway leads shall have a frontage width equal to the street frontage required for the zoning district.
(4)
Construction of private way.
(b)
The issuance of a building permit for a single-family dwelling on a back lot shall in no way be construed to imply the acceptance of any accessway for the purpose of maintenance or improvements by the Town of Frye Island.
(c)
A lot which currently meets minimum road frontage requirements shall not count as a lot for the purpose of this section, unless the accessway services such lot.
(d)
This section is not intended to prohibit the Board of Appeals from granting a variance if the variance requirements are met.
D.
Lots with adequate water frontage. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in these Land Use Ordinances, a single lot of record which lacks adequate road frontage and does not have public or private motor vehicle access may be built upon and used for any use allowed in the zoning district if such lot has water frontage which equals or exceeds the road frontage requirement in the zoning district and is accessible by watercraft.[1]

Permit requirement for private swimming pools. For private swimming pools, the Code Enforcement Officer shall issue a permit.
A.
Intent. The intent of this section is to regulate the location and erection of all transmission towers in all districts in order to:
B.
Tower height restrictions. Towers shall not exceed 200 feet in height above ground surface in all districts where permitted except the Rural District, where the height is restricted to 125 feet. Special exceptions and variances shall not be granted. Municipal towers are not exempt from these requirements, unless the tower is an accessory use with a municipal building where the municipal tower shall not exceed 200 feet.
C.
Setback requirements. All transmission towers shall be set back from the lot lines a distance of 1 1/2 times the structure height, but not less than the minimum setback requirements for that zone. Other structures, including but not limited to any accessory structure(s), and guy wire anchors must meet setbacks established in this Part 1. Municipal towers are exempt from these requirements when the tower is an accessory use with a municipal building.
D.
Proof of conformity required. When regulated by the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) or Federal Communications Commission (FCC), applications for transmission towers shall be accompanied by evidence that such tower (and any related structures) meets or can meet requirements and specifications of the FAA and FCC. The applicant shall also furnish evidence of appropriate FAA/FCC operator licensing prior to construction.
E.
Fence or wall required. A chain-link (security) fence or wall not less than eight feet in height from the finished grade shall be provided around each transmission tower. Access to the tower(s) shall be through a locked gate.
F.
Buffering required. Vegetative buffering must be provided to screen the transmission tower, including any accessory buildings and structures at ground level, from adjacent land uses.

I.
Radiation levels. The design, siting and operation of the transmission tower and any related structures must assure that all potentially hazardous radiation is controlled or contained and that radiation levels are at safe levels at the property lines of the site. The standards for emission levels shall be the federal or state NIER emission or measurement standard, whichever is more strict. Until such standard(s) is established, the NIER emissions shall not expose the general public to ambient radiation exceeding an equivalent plane wave power density of 0.2 milliwatt per square centimeter (mW/cm2) from 30 megahertz to 300 megahertz (MHz) frequency range, averaged over a one-tenth-hour period. The standard shall be measured at the property lines.
J.
Color of tower. Subject to federal requirements stating otherwise, transmission towers shall be finished or painted silver or gray or retain a galvanized finish in order to blend with the sky above treetop level and earthtone colors to blend with colors below treetop level.
