Zoning district boundary lines are intended to follow street rights-of-way, 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. The exact location of any disputed zoning district boundary line shall be determined by the Board. 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.
Where a vacated street is bounded on either side by a different zoning district, the former center line of the vacated right-of-way shall be considered the zoning district boundary line.
As required by the Municipal Land Use Law (N.J.S.A. 40:55D-1 et seq.), the boundary of the airport hazard area, including the runway subzone, the runway end subzones and the clear zones is delineated on the Zoning Map pursuant to the Air Safety and Hazardous Zoning Act of 1983, c. 260 (N.J.A.C. 6:1-80 et seq.). Development on lands located within the delineated airport hazard area shall be in accordance with § 219-47 and the following provisions:
A. 
No new development can occur at a density greater than one house per three acres pursuant to N.J.A.C. 6:1-80 et seq.
