Hospitals, churches, schools, radio transmission towers, water towers, chim- neys, spires, penthouses, cupolas, silos, windmills and similar structures may be erected to a height greater than the maximum permitted in the district in which they are located; provided, however, that no part of that structure above the height limit shall . be used for residential purposes. ; (3) AREA, FRONTAGE AND POPULATION DENSITY. (a) Any lot or parcel shown on a recorded subdivision, plat or assessor's plat, or con- veyance recorded in the office of the Register of Deeds for Dane County prior to the adoption of this ordinance, may be used as a building site, or for any use per- mitted in the zoning district in which the lot is located even though such lot or parcel does not conform to the minimum frontage or area requirements of the district in which it is located; provided, however, that no multiple family dwelling or resi- dential unit in combination with some other use shall be erected, altered or con- verted in use on lots having a width of less than 50 feet. (b) When two (2) or more lots or parcels of land each of which lacks adequate area or dimensions prescribed for the zoning districts in which they are located, are con- tiguous and held in one ownership, they may be used as one lot if they meet the area and dimensional requirements of the district; provided, however, these provi- sions shall not apply where a principal building or use is established on each of the undersized lots. (4) SETBACK, FRONT YARD. (a) In a district in which service stations are permitted, pumps and pump islands may be located within the setback lines, but not closer to the lot line or highway right-of-way line than 12 feet. On corner lots no pump or pump island shall be closer to either street or highway than 12 feet. (b) In case of interior lots having frontage on two (2) side streets, no accessory build- ing shall extend into the setback area of either street. (c) When the side line of an interior lot is formed wholly or in part by the rear line of an abutting corner lot and the street side yard for the main building is less than the setback from the main building facing such street, the setback for the building on such interior lot may be modified so as to be midway between the side yard for the building on the corner lot and the setback from such street. (d) In platted subdivisions recorded before the adoption of this ordinance where a build- ing line shall have been established by the construction of buildings on 30 percent of the lots in any one (1) block, such established setback line shall be the setback for that block, but in no event shall such setback be less than 20 feet. (e) No existing building, erected prior to the adoption of this ordinance, which pro- jects into the setback area shall be moved, structurally altered or added to so as to increase that part of the building projecting into the setback area.
