shall have a minimum frontage of 100 feet on a public street or

Commission may approve a lesser frontage to a minimum of 100
feet for lots located on cul-de-sacs, street curves, or having
other extraordinary characteristics.
2. Maximum Lot Coverage
No more than 45 percent of the lot shall be covered by a
building or structure. Parking lots shall not be included in
the calculation of lot coverage.
