Tier 1 Uses within a mixed-use structure shall
provide the required side yards.

|
When the width of a lot exceeds 52.5 feet and the lot area exceeds
5,250 square feet, the "minimum aggregate total of both side yards"
shall be the product of multiplying the applicable minimum aggregate
total of both side yards by the lesser of:
| |
(1)
|
The quotient obtained by dividing the width of the lot in feet
by 50; or
| |
(2)
|
The quotient obtained by dividing the area of the lot in square
feet by 5,000.
| |
Where for the purposes of this section the width of a lot is
defined as:
| ||
(1)
|
The perpendicular distance between the two side lot lines when
these lot lines are parallel; or
| |
(1)
|
When the two side lot lines are not parallel, the length of
the street line between the points where these lot lines intersect
the street line at the front of the lot.
| |
In the case of a corner lot, one side lot line shall be interpreted
as the street line of the intersecting street.
| ||
In the case of a corner lot where the right-of-way lines of
the intersecting streets are joined by an arc, the point of measurement
is the point at which the extension of the two right-of-way lines
intersect.
