    (a)

    Nothing in this section shall be constructed to permit any such institution now located in any district zoned for business, by acquiring premises therein or erecting additional buildings thereon to shorten the 100-foot limit between such institutional structure heretofore erected, and such proposed garage structure as defined by this Zoning Code;

    Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit the erection or maintenance of automobile sales or display rooms or buildings with automobile service stations connected thereto. Such automobile service stations connected to buildings, or automobiles sales or display rooms, shall have no vehicle entrance located upon the same street with and within 150 feet of any part of the building structure of any public or parochial school, playground, public library, church, hospital, orphanage or children's home heretofore erected. Distance shall be measured along and parallel with street or alley lines, and when such lines extend across a street the same shall be considered as crossing the same at right angles;

    (c)

    A public garage or garage repair shop shall not have an opening in a wall or roof within 15 feet of adjacent property that is located in a residential, apartment residential district or adjacent to property used for residential purposes in a planned community district;

    (d)

    It is further provided, however, that in the event the governing body of such public or parochial school church, playground, public library, hospital, orphanage or children's home, files its consent in writing with the director or his authorized representative, a major garage or garage repair shop may be erected or established nearer than 100 feet, but not nearer than 50 feet from the building structure of any such institution.
