Said "districts" are bounded and defined as
shown on a map entitled the "Town of Pound Ridge, New York, Zoning

Maps as may be adopted by the Town Board and made a part of this chapter
by express reference.
[1]
Editor's Note: Said map is included in the
pocket at the end of this volume.
Where "districts" are referred to as "more restrictive"
or "less restrictive," the designation shall refer to the order in
which the "districts" are named above, the first named being the most
restrictive.
Where uncertainty exists as to the locations
of any boundaries shown on the Zoning Map, the following rules shall
apply:
A.
"District" boundary lines are intended to follow "streets,"
rights-of-way, watercourses or "lot lines" or to be parallel or perpendicular
thereto, unless such "district" boundary lines are fixed by dimensions,
as shown on the Zoning Map.
B.
Where "district" boundaries are indicated as approximately
following "streets," rights-of-way or watercourses, the center lines
thereof shall be construed to be such boundaries.
C.
Where "district" boundaries are so indicated that
they approximately follow the edge of lakes, ponds, reservoirs or
other bodies of water, the mean high water lines thereof shall be
construed to be the district boundaries, except that the regulations
of the most restrictive district on the edge of such a body of water
shall apply to the area within the mean high water line and the body
of water thereof.
D.
Where "district" boundaries are so indicated that
they approximately follow "lot lines," such "lot lines" shall be construed
to be such boundaries.
E.
In unsubdivided property or where a "district" boundary
divides a "lot," the location of any such boundary, unless the same
is indicated by dimensions shown on said map, shall be determined
by the "use" of the map scale shown thereon.
F.
If the "district" classification of any land is in
question, it shall be deemed to be in the most restrictive adjoining
"district."
G.
In the Planned Business A Zoning "District," the location
of the boundaries of "building areas" is shown on the supplementary
Zoning Map entitled "Planned Business A Zoning District, showing Building
Areas and Parking Areas," 1966, as amended. The distances shown on
this map shall fix the boundaries of the "building area" in relation
to the "lot lines" of the affected property as they existed on the
date of the adoption of the "Planned Business A Zoning "District."
Where a "lot" lies in two or more zoning "districts,"
any "building" or land "uses" established thereon shall comply with
the regulations of the "district" in which said "building" or "use"
is located. "Uses" permitted in one "district" may not extend into
another "district" where they would not otherwise be permitted. Dimensional
requirements shall be measured from "lot lines" and not zoning "district"
lines.
Access to a business area across property designated
for residential "use" shall not be permitted.
