The regulations set by this chapter within each zoning district shall be minimum regulations and shall apply uniformly to each class or kind of structure or land, and particularly, except as hereinafter provided:

      1.   To exceed the height or bulk;

      2.   To accommodate or house a greater number of families;

      3.   To occupy a greater percentage of lot area;

      4.   To have narrower or smaller rear yards, front yards, side yards or other open spaces than required by this chapter, or in any other manner contrary to the provisions of this chapter.

   C.   No part of a yard, other open space, or off street parking or loading space required about or in connection with any building for the purpose of complying with this chapter shall be included as part of a yard, open space or off street parking or loading space similarly required for any other building.
