The regulations hereinafter set forth in this chapter qualify or supplement, as the case may be, the zone regulations appearing elsewhere in this title.

The requirements of this title as to minimum lot area or lot width shall not be construed to prevent the use for a single-family dwelling of any lot or parcel of land in the event that such lot or parcel of land is held in separate ownership at the time the ordinance codified in this title becomes effective.

No required yard or other open space around an existing building, or which is hereafter provided around any building for the purpose of complying with the provisions of this title, shall be considered as providing a yard or open space for any other building; nor shall any yard or other required open space for any other building, nor shall any yard or other required open space on an adjoining lot be considered as providing a yard or open space on a lot whereon a building is to be erected or established.

Every dwelling shall be located and maintained on a lot as defined in this title.

On any lot under a separate ownership from adjacent lots and of record at the time of passage of the ordinance codified in this title, and such lot having a smaller width than required for the zone in which it is located, the width of each of the side yards for a dwelling may be reduced to a width which is not less than the same percentage of the width of the lot as the required side yard would be of the required lot width, provided that in interior lots the smaller of the two yards shall be in no case less than five feet, or larger than eight feet, and for corner lots the street side yard shall be in no case less than ten (10) feet or the other side yard be less than five feet.

On any interior lot where a private garage, containing a sufficient number of parking spaces to meet the requirements of this title, has a side yard equal to the minimum side yard required for a dwelling in the same zone, the width of the other side yard for the dwelling may be reduced to equal that of the minimum required side yard.

No space needed to meet the width, yard, area, coverage, parking or other requirements of this title for lot or building may be sold or leased away from such lot or building.

No parcel of land which has less than the minimum width and area requirement for the zone in which it is located may be cut off from a larger parcel of land for the purpose, whether immediate or future, of building or development as a lot, except by permit of the board of adjustment.

Every part of a required yard shall be open to the sky, unobstructed except for accessory buildings in a rear yard, the ordinary projections of skylight, sills, belt courses, cornices, chimneys, flues and other ornamental features shall not project into a yard more than two and one-half feet, and open or lattice enclosed fire escapes, fireproof outside stairway and balconies open upon fire towers projecting into a yard not more than five feet.

Public, semipublic utility buildings, when authorized in a zone, may be erected to a height not exceeding seventy-five (75) feet if the building is set back from each otherwise established building line at least one foot for each additional foot of building height above the normal height limit required for the zone in which the building is erected.

No dwelling shall be erected to a height less than one story above grade.

In all zones which require a front yard, no obstruction to view in excess of three feet in height shall be placed on any corner lot within a triangular area formed by the street property lines and a line connecting them at points forty (40) feet from the intersection of the street lines except a reasonable number of trees pruned high enough to permit unobstructed vision to automobile drivers; and pedestal-type identification signs and pumps at gasoline stations.

Wherever a front yard is required for a lot facing on a street for which an official map has been recorded in the office of the city recorder, the depth of such front yard shall be measured from the mapped street line provided by the official map.

The afore detailed changes negate code section 17.16.160 (Two Family Dwellings), which is thus hereby repealed.

Setbacks on property abutting unplatted or undedicated streets shall be measured from the centerline of the existing right-of-way. The centerline of the existing street/right-of-way shall be determined by a combination of the existing developed roadway and the distance between the apparent property lines. The setback therefore will be the distance from the centerline of the road to the assumed property line plus thirty (30) feet.

In all cases, the location of any service or utility lines such as water, sewer or irrigation lines located in the right-of-way or borrow shall be considered in establishing right-of-way width.

In no case shall the borrow pit area of the right-of-way be less than the amount needed for snow removal, utility installation, trash collection, pedestrian traffic, bide traffic, etc., which may occur off of the surfaced road.

In cases where a development will take place on an area where there is no road, or an existing road is judged to be substandard, the Manti City Code will take precedence in requiring certain minimum road widths in order to accommodate development.
