In the districts indicated, for zoning lots containing cottage envelope buildings, the following yards, courts and open space regulations may be modified in accordance with the provisions of this Section.

1. Lot Coverage
   
   In R1-2A, R2A, R3-1, R3-2, R4, R4-1, and R4A Districts, the lot coverage regulations need not apply. In lieu thereof, the yard requirements of this Section shall apply.
2. Front Yards
   
   For the purpose of this Section, the area between the street line and the street wall line of adjacent buildings containing residences on the same or adjoining zoning lots fronting on the same street shall be considered adjacent front yards.
   
   Where an adjacent front yard is shallower than the minimum required pursuant to the applicable district regulations, then the front yard of the zoning lot containing cottage envelope buildings may be as shallow as the shallowest adjacent front yard.
3. Corner Lots
   
   Where a corner lot has a lot area equal to or less than 3,000 square feet, only one front yard need be provided, and the remaining front lot line may be treated as a side lot line.
