    The minimum lot sizes set forth in this section are permissible only if and to the extent that adequate water and sewer facilities are or can be made available to serve every lot in accordance with the provisions of Article XV of this ordinance. For example, in some areas zoned RA-20 that are not served by public sewer, lots may have to exceed the twenty thousand-square-feet-minimum required below in order to accommodate septic tanks. In such cases and in cases where lots of less than fifteen thousand (15,000) square feet are proposed and such lots do not have access to sewage treatment facility or county sewer lines, the Health Department, Environmental Health Division shall review and approve proposed plans as provided in Sections 238 and 239.
