[Amended 6-1-1992; 2-1-1993; 3-20-1995; 11-21-2005; 5-16-2016 by Ord. No. 6-2016; 3-18-2024 by Ord. No. 2-2024]
The boundaries of districts shall be as shown on the map attached
to and made a part of this chapter, which map shall be known as the
"Zoning Map of the Borough of Swedesboro, Gloucester County, New Jersey,"
revised February 2024, prepared by Bryson & Yates Consulting Engineers,
LLC, and adopted by the Mayor and Borough Council. The Zoning Map
may be amended from time to time by amendment to this chapter. Said
map, and all notations, references and data shown thereon, are hereby
incorporated by reference into this chapter and shall be as much a
part of this chapter as if all were fully described herein.
The boundaries between districts are, unless otherwise indicated,
either the center lines of streets or railroad rights-of-way or such
lines extended or lines parallel or perpendicular thereto. Where figures
are shown on the Zoning Map between a street and a district boundary
line, they indicate that the district boundary line runs parallel
to the street line at a distance therefrom equivalent to the number
of feet so indicated.
Where a district boundary line divides a lot which was held
in single and separate ownership at the time the boundary line was
established, the use regulations applicable to the less restricted
district shall extend over the portion of the lot in the more restricted
district a distance of not more than 50 feet beyond the district boundary
line.
