Any property description used to divide an area of the commercial tract into a fragment lot shall not be considered a lot or tract under terms of this Title or Title 4 of this code, but shall be otherwise a lawful lot or tract. Any fragment lot created under this section shall contain the minimum area, width and depth otherwise required for lots in the zoning district in which the fragment lot is located.
