The boundaries of the districts designated in §
213-56 are hereby established as shown upon the Building Zone Map of the Town of Babylon, Suffolk County, New York, as amended July 7, 1954, which map is hereby made a part of this chapter, and all notations, references and other things shown thereon shall be as much a part of this chapter as if fully described herein.
No building shall be erected, altered or used,
and no premises shall be used for any other purpose than as may be
permitted in the district in which such building or premises shall
be located.
The boundaries between districts are either
the center lines of streets or of railroad rights-of-way or such lines
extended or lines parallel thereto, unless otherwise indicated upon
the Building Zone Map. Where figures are shown on the Building Zone
Map between a street and a district boundary line, such figures indicate
that the district boundary line runs parallel to the street line at
the distance so indicated by such figures. When the location of a
district boundary line is not otherwise determined, it shall be determined
by the scale of the map. Whenever the lines of an existing or mapped
street vary from the same street lines as shown on the Building Zone
Map, the district designated shown on the Building Zone Map shall
govern and control.
Where a district boundary line divides a lot
which was held in single and separate ownership on July 7, 1954, the
Board of Appeals, as hereinafter provided, may permit the less restricted
use to extend to the whole or any part of such lot for a distance
not exceeding 50 feet.
