When a lot contains rock formations, wetlands, wetland transition areas, State open waters, floodway, riparian zones, slopes exceeding 10%, land within 100 feet of a cliff face, land within 100 feet of a ridge line, depth to bedrock of less than four feet, or similar constraining conditions, the appropriate Board (Planning or Zoning), after adequate investigation, shall determine whether adequate contiguous area free of restraining conditions exist.

The unconstrained area shall have a width as defined in § 25-4 lot width, but for a depth sufficient to build a structure, within the minimum bulk requirements. § 25-28.10 Variances.
