§ 1; and by Ord. 1995-2, 3/14/1995]
1.
For the purposes of this Chapter, the Borough is hereby divided into
six types of districts, which are located as indicated on the attached
Zoning Map which has been amended to exhibit the same, and which districts
shall be designated as follows:
[Ord. 1973-8, 5/25/1973, § 402; as amended by Ord.
1978-6, 3/8/1978; by Ord. 1995-2, 3/14/1995; and by Ord. 1996-2, 5/9/1996,
§ 3]
1.
The boundaries of said districts shall be shown upon the map, as
amended, and as attached hereto and made a part of this Chapter which
shall, except those treated as floating zones, be designated "Zoning
Map." The same map and all the notations, references and other data
shown thereon is hereby incorporated by reference into this Chapter
as if all were fully described herein.
2.
The boundaries of the floodplain districts are established as shown
on the Official Zoning Map of the Borough of Burnham which is declared
to be a part of this Chapter and which shall be kept on file at the
Burnham Borough offices.
[Ord. 1973-8, 5/25/1973, § 403]
Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of any district
as shown on said map, the following rules shall apply:
A.
District boundary lines are intended to follow or be parallel to
the center line of streets, streams, and railroads; and lot or property
lines as they exist on a recorded deed or plan or record in the Mifflin
County Recorder of Deeds office at the time of the adoption of this
Chapter, unless such District boundary lines are fixed by dimensions
as shown on the Zoning Map.
B.
Where a district boundary is not fixed by dimensions and where it
approximately follows lot lines, and where it does not scale more
than 10 feet therefrom, such lot lines shall be construed to be such
boundaries unless specifically shown otherwise.
C.
In unsubdivided land or where a district boundary divides a lot,
the location of such boundary, unless the same is indicated by dimensions,
shall be determined by the use of the scale appearing on the maps.
[Ord. 1973-8, 5/25/1973, § 404; as amended by Ord.
1978-6, 3/8/1978]
1.
In case of any uncertainty, the Zoning Hearing Board shall interpret
the intent of the map as to location of district boundaries.
2.
Initial interpretations of the boundaries of the floodplain districts
shall be made by the Zoning Officer. Should a dispute arise concerning
the boundaries of any of the floodplain district, the Zoning Hearing
Board shall make the necessary determination. The person questioning
or contesting the location of the district boundary shall be given
a reasonable opportunity to present his case to the Board and to submit
his own technical evidence if he so desires.
[Ord. 1973-8, 5/25/1973, § 405; as amended by Ord.
1978-6, 3/8/1978; by Ord. 1979-8, 5/9/1979; by Ord. 1980-10, 12/30/1980,

by the Borough Council where natural or man-made changes have occurred
and/or more detailed studies conducted or undertaken by the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers River Basin Commission or other qualified agency
or individual documents the need for such change. However, prior to
any change, approval must be obtained from the Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA), or successor Federal agency, all per the National Flood
Insurance Act of 1968, as amended and supplemented, 42 U.C.S.A. § 4001
