(1) Minimum lot area per dwelling unit. In district A, a maximum lot area also applies to lots for single-family detached dwellings, under which the total area for such lots shall not exceed by more than 20 percent the total area of any other lot for a single-family detached dwelling on the same blockface.

(2) In district A, a maximum lot width also applies to lots for single-family detached dwellings, under which the width for such lots shall not exceed by more than 20 percent the width of any other lot for a single-family detached dwelling on the same blockface.

(3) Lots may be located on any street classification of greater but not lesser capacity than the minimum standard. The design of the development and the anticipated traffic generation will determine actual street design classification.

(4) For apartment lots with more than two dwelling units, the minimum lot size is calculated according to the number of dwelling units as described in section 14-132(d).

(5) Where one or more lots have frontage on a street, all other lots in that block with side lot lines on the same street shall have a setback requirement of 25 feet.
