Where the majority of frontage along one side of a street within 500 feet of a vacant lot has been developed with a defined setback, any building hereafter erected on said vacant lot shall not be setback less than the average front yard along that street.

(b)

On corner lots, two front yards are established, with the front yard setback determined by the average front yard along each street consistent with subsection (a) of this section.

(c)

Setbacks are established from the property line, which is established as the right-of-way line when abutting a street. Where the legally described property line includes any portion of the street right-of-way, the right-of-way line shall serve as the property line for meeting the required setback.

(b)

Should the property abut a state trunk line, the setback shall be based upon a proposed right-of-way line should the state department of transportation (MDOT) approve plans for expanding the right-of-way.
