CURB LEVEL

CURB LEVEL is the mean level of the curb adjoining a ZONING LOT. On CORNER LOTS, CURB LEVEL is the average of the mean levels of the adjoining curbs on intersecting STREETS, except that, for the purpose of regulating and determining the level of YARDS, or other open areas on CORNER LOTS, the CURB LEVEL is the highest of the mean levels of the curbs on the intersecting STREETS. Where THROUGH LOT regulations are applicable to any portion of a CORNER LOTS, or for any THROUGH LOT, the height and setback regulations based upon CURB LEVEL shall apply separately on each STREET on which such THROUGH LOT portion or THROUGH LOT fronts. On a THROUGH LOT, for purposes of establishing the level of a REAR YARD EQUIVALENT, except when adjoining and extending along the full length of the STREET LINE, the CURB LEVEL shall be the mean of the levels of the curbs on those portions of the STREETS on which such THROUGH LOT fronts. Where on a THROUGH LOT such REAR YARD EQUIVALENT is adjoining and extending along the full length of the STREET LINE, the height of the REAR YARD EQUIVALENT shall be the CURB LEVEL of the adjoining STREET. Where THROUGH LOT regulations and INTERIOR LOT regulations are applicable to portions of a ZONING LOT, for purposes of establishing the level of the REAR YARD EQUIVALENT or REAR YARD, CURB LEVEL shall be the mean of the levels of the curbs on that portion of each STREET on which such portions of the ZONING LOT front.

For the purposes of determining a BASE PLANE, CURB LEVEL is the mean level at that portion of the curb adjoining a ZONING LOT from which, when viewed directly from above, lines perpendicular to the curb may be drawn to a STREET WALL. On CORNER LOTS, CURB LEVEL is the average of the mean levels of such portions of the curbs on intersecting STREETS. On THROUGH LOTS, CURB LEVEL is determined separately for each STREET frontage to a distance midway between such STREETS.
