§ 270-10. Lots., Article IV. General Requirements, Chapter 270. Zoning, Part II. General Legislation, Code of Ordinances, Rotterdam

Required lot area. No building or structure shall be constructed or altered so as to conflict with the required minimum lot area for the district in which such building or structure is located. No parcel or lot shall be so reduced in area, width or depth so as to be smaller than required for the zoning district in which said lot or parcel is located.

Lot required for every building. Every building erected after the effective date of this chapter shall be located on a lot, as defined herein. Except in districts in which multiple principal uses or multiple principal buildings are expressly permitted on a single lot, no more than one principal use or principal building and its permitted accessory uses/structures shall be permitted to occupy a lot.

Subdivisions. Should a lot hereafter be formed from the part of a lot already occupied by a building, such separation shall be effected in such manner as not to impair conformity with any of the requirements of this chapter with respect to the existing buildings and all yards and other required spaces in connection therewith, and no permit shall be issued for the erection of a building on the new lot thus created unless it complies with all the provisions of this chapter and the Subdivision Ordinance of the Town of Rotterdam.

Editor's Note: See Ch. 249, Subdivision of Land.

Lots in two districts. Where a district boundary line divides a lot in a single or joint ownership of record at the time such line is adopted, the regulations for the less restricted portion of such lot shall extend not more than 30 feet into the more restricted portion, provided that the lot has frontage on a street in the less restricted district.
