The remaining side yard may range from 0 feet, up to a maximum of one foot, except for Lots where minimum setbacks required from side streets or from adjoining Lots in other zoning districts necessitate this remaining side yard to be a minimum of 5 feet. In no circumstance shall the separation between a Zero Lot Line home and any dwelling on an adjoining Lot be less than 10 feet. 3. Any side yard abutting a street Right-Of-Way must be a minimum of 25 feet. 4.
