Zoning district boundary lines are intended to follow street center
lines, railroad rights-of-way, streams and lot or property lines as
they exist on lots of record at the time of enactment of this chapter,
unless otherwise indicated by dimensions on the Zoning Map.
B.
Any dimensions shown on the Zoning Map are measured horizontally
and from the street right-of-way line, even if the center line of
that street is used for the location of the zoning district line.
C.
The exact location of any disputed zoning district boundary line
shall be determined by the Zoning Board of Adjustment.
D.
The zoning standards, controls and designations apply to every structure,
lot and use within each district, and the district lines extend vertically
in both directions from ground level.
