Section 19:4-3.19 - Yard designation

(a) Lots with more than one front yard shall maintain front yard requirements and setbacks from all front lot lines.

(b) For every lot with more than one front yard, the property owner shall designate one rear yard, with the remaining yards designated as side yards.

(c) In the case of a triangular or otherwise irregularly shaped lot, the rear lot line shall be construed to be a line 10 feet in length entirely within the lot, parallel to and at a maximum distance from the front lot line, for the purpose of bulk regulation.

(d) In the case where a lot line abuts a railroad right-of-way, the lot line shall not be considered a front lot line.

(e) In the case where a lot line abuts a right-of-way, where the improved edge of the right-of-way is grade separated from a front lot line or front yard, and from which there can be no reasonable access from the right-of-way due to such grade separation, the Chief Engineer may determine that such lot line or yard shall not be considered a front lot line or front yard.
