For the purpose of this chapter, the Township
of Oldmans is hereby divided into seven districts as follows:
The boundaries of these zoning districts are
established on the map entitled "Zoning Map of the Township of Oldmans,"
dated October 1988, which accompanies and is hereby made a part of
this chapter.[1]
[1]
Editor's Note: The current Zoning Map is available
for inspection in the Township offices.
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. Any dimensions shown shall be in feet and measured
horizontally and, when measured from a street, shall be measured from
the street right-of-way line, even if the center line of that street
is used for the location of a zoning district line. The exact location
of any disputed zoning district boundary line shall be determined
by the Board of Adjustment. 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 zoning district boundary line divides
a lot other than by following a stream or street, any use permitted
in either district may be extended not more than 20 feet into the
adjacent district. A use permitted in the zoning district so extended
shall thereafter be a permitted use in the extended area. A zoning
district line, however, shall be altered only once by utilizing this
section of this chapter, after which the lot use shall be governed
by the regulations of the zoning district in which it is located after
the zoning district boundary line adjustment.
