A.
There shall exist only one official Zoning Map which
shall be kept in the office of the Town Clerk, and it shall bear certification
that it is the Official Zoning Map of the Town of Barre and its date
of adoption. Said Zoning Map shall show the boundaries of the zoning
districts herein established, and, together with all explanatory matter
thereon, is hereby adopted by reference and declared to be a part
of this chapter.
B.
Said Zoning Map shall be on material suitable for
reproduction. Copies of this map, which may from time to time be published
and sold, would be accurate only as of the date of their printing
and shall bear words to that effect.
C.
Changes made in zoning district boundaries, or other
matters portrayed on the Zoning Map under the provisions set forth
herein, shall be permanently affixed to the Zoning Map promptly after
an amendment has been approved by the Town Board and shall convey
information as to the date and nature of the change. No amendment
to this chapter, which involves matters portrayed on the Zoning Map,
shall become effective until such change and entry has been made on
said Zoning Map and has been attested to by the Town Clerk.

parallel to the center lines or right-of-way lines of streets or highways

such dimensions shall be determined by the use of the scale shown
on said Zoning Map.

a stream, lake or other body of water shall be construed to follow
