classification having the same initial letter in the first part of
the name regardless of the numeral that follows. For example, the
term "R District" shall include the R2 and R/PRD Districts.
C.
The district S is recognized herein as most protected
within itself and is subject to lessening of such protection if uses
of any of the other two types are introduced therein.
The boundaries of the districts listed above
are designated on the Zoning District Map which, together with all
the information recorded thereon, is hereby made a part of this chapter.[1] The map shall be corrected and updated to coincide with
this chapter and subsequent amendments, and the date of each amendment
to the map shall appear on the map. In addition, a graphic scale shall
appear on the map.

Editor's Note: The Zoning District Map, as
amended, is on file in the Borough offices.
Where uncertainty exists with respect to the
boundaries of the various districts, as shown on the Zoning District
Map, the following rules shall apply:
A.
Where the indicated boundaries on the Zoning District
Map are approximate lot lines or property lines, said lines shall
be construed to be the boundaries of such district, unless otherwise
indicated.
B.
Where the indicated boundaries on the Zoning District
Map are approximate public rights-of-way, the center lines of said
public rights-of-way shall be construed to be the boundaries.
C.
Where the indicated boundaries are dimensioned on
the Zoning District Map, said dimensions shall determine the boundaries.
D.
Where the indicated boundaries are not approximate
lot or property lines or public rights-of-way, and where said boundaries
are not dimensioned, the boundaries shall be determined by scaling
on the Zoning District Map.
