2.    No accessory building shall be erected in any required yard and no detached accessory building shall be erected closer than 5 feet to any other building.

3.    No accessory building shall be constructed upon a lot until the construction of the main building has been actually commenced, and no accessory building shall be used for dwelling purposes.

4.    Open or lattice-enclosed fire escapes, fireproof outside stairways and balconies opening upon fire towers, and the ordinary projections of chimneys and flues into the rear yard may be permitted by the Zoning Administrator for a distance of not more than 3 1/2 feet and where the same are so placed as not to obstruct light and ventilation.

5.    Where a lot or tract is used for other than a single-family or two-family dwellings, more than one principal use may be located upon the lot or tract but only when the building or buildings conform to all requirements for the district in which the lot or tract is located.

6.    No side yards are required where dwelling units are erected above commercial and industrial structures.

7.    Whenever the number of employees is restricted in connection with any use in the neighborhood shopping or commercial districts, such maximum number applies only to employees principally engaged in processing, selling, or treating materials of products on the premises and not to employees engaged in delivery or similar activities.

8.    Radio and television towers shall be permitted in any district with a special use permit providing the height of said radio or television tower does not conflict with any airport approach or landing zone or with any other regulations.

9.    On a corner lot in any district, nothing shall be erected, placed, planted or allowed to grow in such a manner as to materially impede vision between a height of 2 1/2 and 10 feet above the grades of the bottom of the curb of the intersecting streets, from the point of intersection 90 feet in each direction measured along the centerline of the streets. At the intersection of major or arterial streets, the 90 foot distance shall be increased to 120 feet.

10.  Major recreational equipment such as boats, boat trailers, travel trailers, pick-up campers or coaches, camping buses or converted trucks, and tent trailers shall not be stored in a residential district except within an enclosed building or behind the principal structure and further no such recreational equipment shall be utilized for living, sleeping or housekeeping purposes when parked on a residential lot or in any location not approved for such use.

11.  No land which is located in a residence district shall be used for a driveway, walkway or access to any land which is located in any business or industrial district.

12.  The building setback lines shall be determined by measuring the horizontal distance from the property line to the furthest architectural projection of the existing or proposed structure.

13.  Temporary structures incidental to construction work, but only for the period of such work, are permitted in all district; however, basements and cellars shall not be occupied for residential purposes until the building is completed.

14.  In all districts permitting residents, the renting of not to exceed 2 sleeping rooms with a total occupancy of not to exceed 3 persons for whom board may be furnished, but with the prohibition of separate culinary accommodations for such tenants shall be permitted for each dwelling unit except that the floor area of the rented space shall not exceed 25% of the total floor area of the dwelling.

The front yards heretofore established shall be adjusted in the following cases:

1.    Where 40 percent or more of the frontage on one side of a street between 2 intersecting streets is developed with buildings that have observed (with a variation of 5 feet or less) a front yard greater in depth than herein required, new buildings shall not be erected closer to the street than the front yard so established by the existing buildings.

2.    Where 40 percent or more of the frontage on one side of a street between 2 intersecting streets is developed with buildings that have not observed a front yard as described above, then:

a.    Where a building is to be erected or a parcel of land that is within 100 feet of existing buildings on both sides, the minimum front yard shall be a line drawn between the 2 closest front corners of the adjacent buildings on the 2 sides, or

b.    Where a building is to be erected on a parcel of land that is within 100 f eet of an existing building on one side only, such building may be erected as close to the street as the existing adjacent building.

3.    Where a building cannot be erected as close to the street as is allowed by the district regulations because of the provisions of paragraphs 1 and 2 above, the Governing Body, upon petition signed by at least one property owner in the block affected and after report upon the same by the Planning Commission, may establish a front yard line for the block affected as close to the street as allowed by the district regulations for that block.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in other codes and regulations, the following regulations shall apply to the construction of fences.

4.    No fence except fences erected upon public or parochial school grounds or in public parks and in public playgrounds shall be constructed of a height greater than 8 feet; provided, however, that the Board of Zoning Appeals may, by special use permit, authorize the construction of a fence higher than 8 feet if the Board finds the public welfare is preserved.

5.    All fences shall conform to the construction standards of the building code, if any.

1.    It is the intent of this regulation to prevent the repair, remodel, assembly, disassembly or storage or standing of any inoperable vehicle other than in an enclosed garage other than in a district permitting and regulating such occurrence.

2.    A motor vehicle shall be determined as inoperable when it does not have a current state license plate or when it has a current state license plate, but is disassembled or wrecked in part or whole and is unable to move under its own power.

3.    Inoperable vehicles may be stored or may stand only in a legally conforming auto wrecking yard or in a fully enclosed storage structure in any district of these regulations.
