b. Each lot shall have a primary frontage abutting a vehicular thoroughfare, except that 20% of the lots within the form-based district may have their primary frontage along a publicly accessible passage, or sidewalk. Rear alleys and rear lanes do not count as thoroughfares; any lots fronting an alley or lane, such as a mews unit, counts toward the 20% maximum. c. Lots may have multiple frontages as illustrated on Table – Frontages & Elevations. One (1) frontage line is designated the principal frontage line and all remaining frontage lines are designed as secondary.

Prescriptions for the second and third layers pertain only to the primary frontage. Prescriptions for the first layer pertain to both frontages.
