Sec. 7-131. - Merger requirement for adjacent substandard land.#
Where land adjacent to a substandard is in the same ownership, such lot shall be combined with adjacent land to form a lot of the required dimensions and area, or to decease the degree of nonconformity where the required area and dimensions cannot be achieved. The merger requirement shall apply to all adjacent land under the same ownership, whether improved or unimproved, except that where both the substandard original lot and the adjacent lot have structures located thereon, it shall apply only if said structures are related to a principal use located on one (1) or more of the lots. This section shall not apply to lots unmerged by the Warren Zoning Board.
