A. 
Lot regulations.
(1) 
Lot frontage. The minimum lot frontage of any lot shall be measured along the minimum building setback line as required for the district in which it is located.
(2) 
Required area or space cannot be reduced. The area or dimension of any lot, yard, parking area or other space shall not be reduced to less than the minimum required by this chapter; and, if already less than the minimum required by this chapter, said area or dimension may be continued and shall not be further reduced.
(3) 
Minimum lot sizes where there is no public water or sewer. Unless the regulations of the district in which they are located require greater lot areas or widths, the following regulations shall apply:
(a) 
Not served by public water or sewer. Lots not served by a public water or sanitary sewer system or other systems approved by the Division of Sanitation, New York State Department of Health, shall not be less than 100 feet frontage at the building line and not less than one acre in area.
[Amended 10-3-1994 by L.L. No. 2-1994]

(c) 
Minimum lot size for two or more family dwellings. Lots to be developed with private water supply and sewage disposal systems or private sewage disposal systems for two or more family dwelling structures may require larger lot sizes and widths than are specified above and because of unusual subsoil or geological conditions found to exist on the particular location in question. In such cases, the minimum lot area otherwise required shall be increased where necessary to the extent required to allow the proposed water and/or sewage installation to operate effectively in order to protect the public health, safety and welfare. Detailed plans for such water and/or sewage systems shall be submitted to the Code Enforcement Officer and approved by him/her before a building permit shall be issued. The suitability of the proposed systems shall be certified by the New York State Department of Health and/or the County Board of Health having jurisdiction.

A. 
Continuation of existing uses. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, the lawfully permitted use of buildings and/or land existing at the time of the adoption of this chapter and any amendments thereto may be continued, although such use does not conform to the standards specified in this chapter for the district in which such building or land is located. These uses shall be deemed nonconforming uses and are subject to the following regulations:
(1) 
A nonconforming use of a building and/or land shall not be changed to another nonconforming use, unless the Zoning Board of Appeals shall, after a public hearing held upon notice, finds it is a nonconforming use similar to or less nonconforming than the immediately preceding use. However, the use shall not be found to be similar or less nonconforming:
(a) 
If it is operated later any afternoon (meaning after 5:00 p.m.), nor if it is operated earlier any day (meaning before 9:00 a.m.), than the immediately preceding use;
(b) 
If it shall include changing from a use which did not involve the sale of nonalcoholic beverages to a use involving the sale of alcoholic beverages; or
(c) 
If it shall include changing from the sale of food and/or beverages primarily for off-premises consumption to the sale of the same primarily for on-premises consumption.
(2) 
If the nonconforming use of a building or land or any portion thereof ceases for any reason for a period of two years or more or is changed to a conforming use, any future use of such building and/or land or the portion thereof shall conform to the provisions of this chapter. However, if the legally existing nonconforming use is interrupted by a natural catastrophe or accidental cause beyond the control of the owner of the premises, such preexisting nonconforming use may be resumed, with any reconstruction to be of the same size and on the same location, with such reconstruction to be completed and such use resumed within two years from the date of such interruption.
(3) 
The nonconforming use of land shall not be increased to cover a greater area or a different portion of the premises. A nonconforming use conducted in part of a building shall not be extended to any other part of the building, nor may such building be enlarged or added to for the purpose of extending or increasing such nonconforming use. A building that is conforming in use, but does not conform as to the height, yard, parking, loading or land coverage requirements of this chapter, shall not be added to or structurally altered to increase any nonconformity.
