Rules of Measurement Chapter 918: Interpretation <br /> <br />lot when there is no rear lot line (see Figure 8-2 for examples). <br /> <br />Figure 17-1 depicts the midpoints of the front and rear lot lines in three <br />instances. Lot depth is measured by connecting a straight line between the <br />midpoints of the front and rear lot lines, as shown. When there is no rear lot line <br />, as in Example “C,” the depth is measured to the rear-most point of the lot from <br />the front lot line. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />(f) Lot or Street Frontage: <br />In the case of a building lot abutting upon only one street, the frontage line is the <br />line parallel to and common with the right-of-way. In the case of a corner lot, that <br />part of the building lot having the narrowest frontage on any street shall be <br />considered the frontage line. For the purpose of determining yard requirements <br />on corner lots and double frontage lots, all sides of a lot adjacent to streets shall <br />be considered frontage, and yards shall be provided as required in this ordinance. <br />(g) Lot Line <br />1. Corner Side Lot Line <br />The corner side lot line is a side lot line that abuts a street or other right- of- <br />way. <br />2. Front Lot Line <br />The front lot line is the line connecting the two side lot lines along the edge <br />of the street that provides a lot’s street address or that opposes the primary <br />entrance of a building. <br />3. Rear Lot Line <br />The rear lot line is the line connecting the two side lot lines along the edge <br />of the lot opposite from the front line. <br />4. Side Lot Line <br />The side lot line is the lot line connecting the front and rear lot lines <br />regardless of whether it abuts a right-of-way or another lot line. <br /> <br />Page 917-7
