19.92.010 - Continuation of legal nonconforming lots.

Any lawfully created lot which becomes nonconforming with regard to lot area, street frontage, lot width, lot depth, or accessibility may continue indefinitely with such nonconformity and may be developed and used

as if it were a conforming lot. However, any property proposed for development with multi-family dwellings shall be fully conforming as to lot area and lot width.

19.92.020 - Modification of legal nonconforming lots.

Legal nonconforming lots may not be modified in any manner that increases the degree of nonconformity. Where feasible, parcel modifications (through lot merger or lot line adjustment) are encouraged to eliminate or minimize the degree of nonconformity.
