Part 2400.3020 - NONCONFORMING LOTS
Subpart 1.General restriction, exception.

No building, structure, or use may be erected, constructed, or established on a nonconforming lot unless a variance is granted by the board under part 2400.3160, except as otherwise provided in this part.

In a district in which one-family dwellings are permitted, notwithstanding any limitations imposed by this chapter, a one-family dwelling and customary accessory buildings may be erected on a lot of record existing on January 5, 2010, provided that the yard dimensions and all other requirements for the district in which the lot is located, not involving lot area or lot width, are met. Yard requirement variances may be obtained through approval of the board.

Subp. 2.Required merger of common ownership lots.

Notwithstanding subpart 1, if in any group of three or more contiguous lots or parcels of land owned or controlled by the same person, any individual lot or parcel is nonconforming as to lot width or lot area, the individual lot or parcel may not be sold or developed as a separate parcel of land, but must be combined with adjacent lots or parcels under the same ownership or control so that the combination of lots or parcels will equal one or more parcels of land, each meeting the full lot width and lot area requirements of this chapter.
