Except for the AH Zone, the restrictions and controls intended to regulate development in each zone are set forth in Article X, which is supplemented by other sections of this chapter.

The restrictions and controls intended to regulate development in the AH Zone are set forth in Article XI, which is supplemented by other sections of this chapter.

Except as otherwise provided in this chapter:

Lot divided by zone. Where a zone boundary line as established in this section or as shown on the Zoning Map divides a lot of record at the time of enactment of this chapter, the use authorized thereon and the other zone requirements applying to the least restricted portion of such lot under this chapter shall be considered as extending to the entire lot, provided that the more restricted portion of such lot is entirely within 30 feet of said dividing zone boundary line; otherwise, the use so extended shall be deemed to be nonconforming.

All buildings and structures shall hereafter be constructed, altered and used only in conformity with the requirements and regulations of the zone in which such buildings or structures are located and in which such uses thereof are conducted, except that nonconforming buildings or structures and uses thereof, as defined in this chapter, may be continued subject to the special regulations herein provided in respect to them.

No permit shall be granted for a building or use if the design or construction of such structure or use involves exceptional risks of traffic congestion or public safety or if the design or construction of said building is markedly incongruous with the character of the neighborhood as to be seriously detrimental to the value of adjacent or nearby property. If the Building Inspector finds either of the above to be the case, he shall refuse a permit.

When developing tracts have been subdivided into five or more building lots, any two buildings whose lots are within 300 feet of each other must be different in the following respects:

Nothing herein contained shall apply to restrict the height of a church spire, belfry or clock tower.

In the event that any exception to or variance from this chapter is granted by the Board of Adjustment or the Planning Board or may result from an order of the court permitting in a particular zone an otherwise nonpermitted use, all requirements, regulations or controls which would apply to the granted use in a permitted zone shall also apply to said use in the nonpermitted zone, including Board of Health approval, the submission of the site plans to the Planning Board for its approval and the submission of said plans to any other municipal, county or state board or agency as may otherwise be required.

If an existing substandard lot of record was created or subdivided after the establishment of the Borough of Kinnelon Planning Board, and if a home to be constructed on said lot is able to comply with all setback requirements, and, further, if the owner does not own any adjacent or contiguous property, a building permit may be issued without the requirement of obtaining a variance. A proposed accessory building conforming to the bulk requirements set forth in § 207-27 or a proposed open porch may be constructed without the need for a variance from minimum lot area or lot frontage from the Zoning Board of Adjustment on any parcel of land that is nonconforming as to lot area or lot frontage, if same was created or subdivided prior to 1972, and the owner does not own any adjacent or contiguous property, provided same is able to comply with all applicable setback requirements.
