--As required under Chapter 1120 of this Title --
a. Where principal buildings in existence on lots within the same block on the
same side of the street have front yard setbacks different from those required,
the minimum front yard setback for any new principal buildings shall be the
minimum front yard setback in existence for any one lot. In no case shall the
front yard setback be less than thirty feet (30'). For purposes of this subsection
a, a block shall be defined as that group of lots lying along a street between
the two closest intersecting streets, except that where the length of the street
frontage between the two intersecting streets is greater than fourteen hundred
feet (1,400'), the block shall be the lots within six hundred and fifty feet
(650') on either side of the lot in question, or to an intersecting street
whichever is less. (Ord. 590, 11-25-96)
b. Not less than thirty feet (30') from the lot line if lot is on corner and the lot
line abuts a street. The side yard setback may be reduced to five feet (5')
between an interior side lot line and that side of a principal building which is
constructed as a garage. Where an attached garage is placed between the five
foot (5') and the ten foot (10') side yard setback which applies to principal
buildings, that portion of the garage at ten feet (10') or less to the side lot line
shall not be converted into living space or another use. (Ord. 590, 11-25-96)
c. Not less than thirty feet (30') from lot line if lot is on corner and lot line abuts
a street. (Ord. 590, 11-25-96)
d. Where a lot is a through lot, the minimum setback for principal buildings from
the lot line abutting the street at the rear of the lot shall be the same as the
front setback. (1988 Code §40.05, Ord. 590, 11-25-96)
e. Not less than twenty-four feet (24') from the front lot line for a covered front
porch attached to the principal structure. The front porch shall not be
