[Amended 2-5-1997 by Ord. No. 1997-2; 2-19-1997 by Ord. No. 1997-6; 8-4-1999 by Ord. No. 1999-27; 7-3-2002 by Ord. No. 2002-19; 3-19-2003 by Ord. No. 2003-6; 9-17-2003 by Ord. No.

District boundary lines are intended to follow
street center lines, streams and lot or property lines unless otherwise
indicated by dimensions on zoning development maps. Any dimensions
shown shall be in feet, measured horizontally and measured from the
street right-of-way lines even if the center line of that street serves
as a district line. The location of any disputed zoning district line
shall be determined by the Board of Adjustment. District lines extend
vertically in both directions from ground level.
A. Where a zoning district line divides a lot, the district
may be modified by the owner by moving the district line up to the
property line, provided that the property line is within 20 feet of
the district line as shown on the map. A use permitted in this district
so extended shall thereafter be a permitted use in the extended area.
B. Where a street or public way serves as a zoning district
line and it is lawfully vacated, the former center line shall be considered
the zoning district line.
