[Amended 1981 by Ord. No. 85]
Except in the A Agricultural District, the C-1
Central Business District and the I-2 Heavy Industrial District, or
as otherwise provided by this chapter, a separate ground area called
the "zone lot" shall be designated, provided and maintained for each
structure containing a permitted use or uses. Each zone lot shall
have at least one front line and shall be occupied only by a main
structure containing the permitted use or uses and a subordinate structure
or structures containing only accessory uses. Designated zone lots
in the A, C-1 and I-2 Districts may contain more than one main structure
containing a permitted use or uses.
A zone lot shall consist of a single parcel
of contiguous land and shall be designated as a zone lot only by the
owner thereof. Where a designated zone lot is not owned by a single
individual or entity or where the ownership of a structure to be placed
on the zone lot is different from the ownership of the land, all responsible
parties shall agree and participate in the designation of the zone
lot. A record of the designation of zone lots shall be kept in the
files of the Zoning Administrator.
No zone lot shall be designated unless it shall
conform to all of the applicable regulations of the zoning district
in which the property is located.
The land area occupied by a use and/or the building
site designated and occupied by each structure on the effective date
of this regulation shall be deemed the zone lot for such use and/or
structures. Upon application to and approval by the Zoning Administrator,
the boundaries and area of the zone lot may be amended, provided full
compliance can be maintained with all of the requirements of this
chapter.
