1. Applicability. a. FrontA)ack lot divisions may be used when existing property dimensions are narrow and deep, such that lot width does not allow for a side-by-side lot split, but acreage is adequate to provide a "front lot" and a back lot without requiring an area variance when the area of the outlot access corridor is excluded. b. Front/back lot divisions may be used for individual "lot splits", but may not be used when subdividing a large parcel into numerous lots if creation of a back lot is merely a conven’ence to the developer rather than supported by unique site factors. c. A front/back lot division shall not be allowed when any existing residence on a neighboring property abutting the proposed access outlot is located nearer its affected side lot line than a distance equivalent to the zoning district required front yard depth. 2. Dimensional standards for back lots shall be as follows: a. b. c. d. Lot area shall be 150% of the zoning district requirement. Lot width measured parallel to the front or street lot line at the street yard setback line of a lakeshore back lot, or at the rear of the front yard setback line of a nonlakeshore back lot, shall meet the zoning district width requirement. The street yard or front yard for any . back lot will be a yard starting where the narrow access outlot corridor ends and the lot begins. Lakeshore back lots shall meet the lot width standard at the shoreline, at the lakeshore setback line and at the street yard setback line. The depth of the required street yard or front yard shall be 150% of the zoning district front yard requirement. The required side yard and rear yard depths for back lots • shall be 150% of the zoning district yard requirements.
