Where the uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries
of the various districts, as shown on the Zoning Map, the following
rules shall apply:
A. The district boundaries are roads unless otherwise shown.
B. Where the district boundaries are not shown to be roads, the boundaries
shall be construed to be property lines or dimensions from streets
or roads.
C. All district boundaries, where applicable, run to the center line
of a road, right-of-way or watercourse.
D. Commercial and industrial districts run 200 feet deep or to the depth
of the property, whichever is less.
Whenever federal- or state-owned property is in one of the zoning
districts, it shall be subject to the provisions of this chapter only
insofar as permitted by the Constitution of the United States or Constitution
of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Where the Public Utility Commission has issued a certificate
to a public utility, the public utility shall be subject to the provisions
of this chapter only insofar as permitted by the certificate so issued.
