F. 
Distances not specifically indicated on the Official Zoning District Map shall be determined by the scale of the map.
The following regulations shall apply in all zoning districts:

In the R-1, R-2 and R-3 Districts, any use not specifically listed as an authorized use in the zoning district shall not be permitted in that zoning district.

In all zoning districts where single-family dwellings or two-family dwellings are an authorized use or are a legally nonconforming use, the single-family dwelling or two-family dwelling shall be the only principal structure on the lot, except in an approved planned residential development (PRD) where single-family dwellings or two-family dwellings may be authorized on the same lot with other single-family dwellings or two-family dwellings.
D. 
In the zoning districts where such uses are authorized by this chapter, two or more multifamily or nonresidential buildings may occupy the same lot, provided each building can independently meet the applicable area and bulk regulations and parking requirements to accommodate the possibility of subdivision of the property in the future to separate the buildings.

F. 
In all zoning districts, all accessory structures shall be located on the same lot with the principal structure to which they are accessory. Any accessory structure shall not be built unless or until the principal structure it serves exists on the lot.
