Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately
following the center line or right-of-way line of streets, alleys,
highways or railroads, such lines shall be construed to be district
boundaries.
B.
Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately
following a stream, lake or other body of water, such stream, lake
or body of water shall be construed to be such district boundaries
(unless otherwise noted).
C.
Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately
following lot lines, such lot lines shall be construed to be said
boundaries.
E.
Whenever any street, alley or other public way is
vacated in the manner authorized by law, the district adjoining each
side of such street, alley or public way shall be automatically extended
to the center of the former right-of-way and all of the area included
in the vacation shall then and henceforth be subject to all regulations
of the extended districts.
F.
In the event that none of the above rules is applicable,
or in the event that further clarification or definition is considered
necessary or appropriate, the location of a district boundary shall
be determined by the Zoning Board of Appeals.
G.
Building rights may be transferred from contiguous
districts which have the same density and are of one ownership.
