tion with some other use, shall be erected, structurally altered or con-
<br />verted in use on any lot having a width of less than fifty (50) feet.

<br />sessor's plat or conveyance and recorded in the office of the register of
<br />deeds for Dane county prior to the adoption of this ordinance, may be
<br />increased in size by the addition of all or part of the adjoining lots or
<br />parcels, and such resulting lots or parcels may be used for any ppurpose
<br />permitted in the district in which they are located even though by such
<br />addition such lots or parcels do not reach the minimum area or frontage
<br />required in such district; provided, however, that subsequent to such addi-
<br />tion, the side yard open space and percentage of occupancy provisions
<br />for lots of the resulting size shall apply; and provided, further, that after
<br />buildings have been erected on such lots or parcels their area or width
<br />shall not thereafter be reduced, except in conformity to the provisions
<br />of this ordinance.
<br />(4) Setback.
<br />(a) The setback of buildings for uses designated in Section 10.05
<br />(1) (f), (g) and (h) shall be not less than fifty (50) feet; and for uses desig-
<br />nated in Section 10.12 (1) (g) the minimum setback shall be seventy -five
<br />(75) feet.
<br />(b) In no district shall any part of any building project into any
<br />setback area except chimneys, steps, open porches not covered or enclosed
<br />and not more than two (2) feet above grade.
<br />(c) In districts in which filling stations are permitted, pumps or pump
<br />islands may be located within the setback lines, but not closer to the lot
<br />line or highway right of way line than one -half ('/z) of the setback distance
<br />for a building; or twelve (12) feet whichever is greater. On corner lots no
<br />piunps or pump island shall be closer to either street than a line drawn
<br />parallel to such streets and the distant therefrom one -half (1 /2) of the
<br />setback distance, but in no event less than twelve (12) feet.
<br />(d) In districts where signs and signboards are permitted, such signs,
<br />when not attached to or suspended from a building, may project into
<br />the setback area; provided, however, that at the intersection of two streets
<br />or highways, or of a railroad right of way and a highway, no sign shall
<br />be erected or hung so as to project within the setback area of either
<br />street, highway or railroad right of way. For purposes of this subsection
<br />the setback from a railroad right of way shall be the same as for a Class A
<br />highway.
<br />(e) In the case of interior lots having a frontage on two streets, no
<br />accessory building shall extend into the setback area of either street.
<br />(f) When the side line of an interior lot is formed wholly or in part
<br />by the rear line of an abutting corner lot and the street side yard for
<br />the main building on the comer lot is less than the setback for the main
<br />buildings facing such street, the setback for the building on such interior
<br />lot may be modified so as to be midway between the side yard for . the
<br />building on the corner lot and the setback for such street.
<br />(g) In platted subdivisions recorded before the adoption of this ordin-
<br />ance where a building line shall have been established by the construction
<br />of buildings on thirty (30) per cent of the lots.;, in any one block, such
<br />established setback line shall be the setback for such block, but in no
<br />event .shall such setback be less than twenty (20) feet.
<br />(h) No existing building, erected prior to the adoption of this ordin-
<br />ance, which projects into the setback area, shall be moved, structurally
<br />altered or added to so as to increase that part of the building projecting,
<br />into the setback area. This provision shall not be construed to prohibit
<br />additions or alterations which conform to the setback requirements.
<br />(5) Side Yards.
<br />(a) Lots of Non - Conforming Width.
<br />1. On lots fifty (50) feet or more in width but less than sixty (60)
<br />feet, the minimum aggregate side yards shall be fifteen (15) feet and no

<br />2. On lots less than fift (50) feet in width the minimum side yard
<br />on each side shall be five (4 feet.
<br />(b) Corner Lots.

<br />C highway the side yard on such street shall conform to the setback re-

<br />2. When the long side of a' corner lot is formed by a Class D or E
<br />highway the side yard on such street shall be not less than one -fifth (1/5)
<br />of the width of the lot, but in no event less than ten (10) feet, The ten
<br />(10) foot minimum shall apply only on lots fifty (50) feet or less in width.
<br />(c) Side yards for uses designated in Section 10.05 (1) (f), (g) and (h)
<br />shall be not less than fifty (50) feet on each side of the building; and for
<br />uses designated in Section 10.12 (1) (g) the minimum side yard on each
<br />side . shall be seventy-five (75) feet.
<br />(6) Rear Yards.
<br />(a) Location of accessory buildings in rear yards.
<br />1. On interior lots sixty (60) feet or more in width no accessory build-
<br />ing shall be erected, moved or added to so as to be nearer than four (4)
<br />feet to the side lot line or the rear lot line.
<br />2. On interior lots less than sixty (60) feet in width no accessory
<br />building shall be erected, moved or adde to so as to be nearer than two
<br />and one -half (2'/2) feet to the side lot line or rear lot line.
<br />3. On interior lots abutting on two streets, or corner lots abutting
<br />on three streets, no accessory building shall be erected, moved or added
<br />to so as to be nearer the rear street than the setback for such street. This
<br />provision shall not apply to alleys.
<br />4. On corner lots abutting on two streets no accessory building shall
<br />be erected, moved or added to so as to be nearer to the side street than
<br />the distance required for the main building on such street; provided, how-
<br />ever, that for garages with entrances facing toward the side street the
<br />minimum distance from such side street shall be twenty (20) feet. When
<br />the rear lot line of the corner lot forms part of the side line -of an adjoin-
<br />ing or abutting lot, no accessory building shall be erected, moved or added
<br />to so as to be nearer such rear lot line than the side yard required for
<br />the building on the adjoining lot.
<br />(7) Lake Shore or Water Front Lots.
<br />(a) Accessory buildings on lake shore or water front lots may be lo-
<br />cated on either the street end or'the water front end of such lots, or both.
<br />The. distance from the side line in either case shall be governed by the
<br />provision of Sections 10.16 (6) (a); provided, however, that no accessory
<br />building may be so placed as to reduce the required side yards for the
<br />main build n$. The setback of such accessory building, when located on
<br />the street end of such lot, shall comply with the provisions of Section 10.17.
<br />Section 7. Section IX of the ordinance of July 20, 1928, the title to
