LOT LINE, FRONT. That boundary of a lot abutting a roadway right-of-way. On a corner lot, either lot line abutting a roadway may be selected at the time of issuance of a building permit for the lot as the front lot line. However, for those corner lots which were prior to the effective date of this Ordinance, the front lot line shall be the lot line which faces the front entrance, as indicated on the building plans, to the principal building located on the lot. The owners of those corner lots which were developed prior to May 1, 1971 may designate in writing which lot line abutting a roadway right-of-way shall be the front lot line. Such designation may be made only once for each corner lot.
LOT LINE, REAR. That boundary of a lot which is most distant from and most nearly parallel to the front lot line; or in the case of a triangular or other irregularly shaped lot, a line ten (10) feet in length entirely within the lot, parallel to and at a maximum distance from the front lot line.
LOT LINE, SIDE. Any boundary line of a lot that is not a front or rear lot line.
LOT FRONTAGE. The length of the front lot line of a lot.
LOT WIDTH. The horizontal distance between the side lot lines of a lot measured at the front building setback line (calculated on the arc measurement for curvilinear lots).
LOT AREA, GROSS. The horizontal area within the lot lines of a lot.
LOT AREA, NET. The horizontal area within the lot lines of a lot.
SETBACK. The minimum horizontal distance between the street right-of-way line or front lot line and/or corner side lot line or a lot and the nearest wall of a building or structure adjoining such right-of-way or lot line.
BUILDING SETBACK LINE. The line parallel to the front lot line of a lot at a distance equal to the depth of the required front yard for the zoning district in which the lot is located.

APPENDIX C: ZONING ILLUSTRATIONS AND DEFINITIONS
LOT TYPES
LOT. A designated parcel, tract or area of land established by plat, subdivision or otherwise permitted by law to be used, developed or built as a single unit under single ownership and control.
CORNER LOT. A lot situated at the intersection of two (2) roadways, the interior angle of which does not exceed one hundred thirty-five degrees (135°).
FLAG LOT. A lot not fronting or abutting a public roadway and where access to the public roadway is limited to a narrow, private right-of-way.
INTERIOR LOT. A lot other than a corner lot.
THROUGH LOT. A lot other than a corner lot which fronts upon two (2) more or less parallel, nonintersecting roadways.
LOTS
LOT LINE. The property lines bounding a lot.
LOT LINE, FRONT. That boundary of a lot abutting a roadway right-of-way. On a corner lot, either lot line abutting a roadway may be selected at the time of issuance of a building permit for the lot as the front lot line. However, for those corner lots which were prior to the effective date of this Ordinance, the front lot line shall be the lot line which faces the front entrance, as indicated on the building plans, to the principal building located on the lot. The owners of those corner lots which were developed prior to May 1, 1971 may designate in writing which lot line abutting a roadway right-of-way shall be the front lot line. Such designation may be made only once for each corner lot.
LOT LINE, REAR. That boundary of a lot which is most distant from and most nearly parallel to the front lot line; or in the case of a triangular or other irregularly shaped lot, a line ten (10) feet in length entirely within the lot, parallel to and at a maximum distance from the front lot line.
LOT LINE, SIDE. Any boundary line of a lot that is not a front or rear lot line.
LOT FRONTAGE. The length of the front lot line of a lot.
LOT WIDTH. The horizontal distance between the side lot lines of a lot measured at the front building setback line (calculated on the arc measurement for curvilinear lots).
LOT AREA, GROSS. The horizontal area within the lot lines of a lot.
LOT AREA, NET. The horizontal area within the lot lines of a lot.
SETBACK. The minimum horizontal distance between the street right-of-way line or front lot line and/or corner side lot line or a lot and the nearest wall of a building or structure adjoining such right-of-way or lot line.
BUILDING SETBACK LINE. The line parallel to the front lot line of a lot at a distance equal to the depth of the required front yard for the zoning district in which the lot is located.
LOT COVERAGE
LOT COVERAGE: That area or portionof a lot occupied by buildings.
REQUIRED YARDS

| YARD LINE: | A line on a lot that is parallel to the lot line along which the applicable yard extends and which is nearer to such lot line at any point that the required depth or width of the applicable yard. A structure or other obstruction shall not protrude into the area between the yard line and such adjacent lot lines, except for such permitted obstructions in yards as are set forth in this Ordinance. |
| SIDE YARD: | A yard bounded by a side lot line/corner side lot line, the front yard line, the rear yard line, and the side yard line of the lot. |
| CORNER SIDE YARD: | A side yard which adjoins either a roadway right-of-way or a private street which, unlike a typical side yard, extends to the rear lot line rather than the rear yard line. |
| INTERIOR SIDE YARD: | A side yard which adjoins another lot. |
| FRONT YARD: | A yard bounded by the front lot line, the side lot line/corner side lot line, and the front yard line of the lot. |
| REAR YARD: | A yard bounded by the rear lot line, the side lot line/corner side lot line, and the rear yard line of the lot. |
| TRANSITIONAL YARD: | A yard which buffers a less intensive use from an adjoining more intensive use, such as a yard buffering a residential use from a commercial use. |
