[Ord. 725-04, 11/8/2004]
Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of districts as
shown on the Official Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply:
A. Designation of District Boundaries. Boundaries indicated as approximately
following the center line of streets, highways, alleys, railroad rights-of-way,
streams, existing lot lines or municipal boundary lines shall be construed
to follow such features indicated. Where district boundary line does
not follow such a line, position is shown on said zoning map by a
specific dimension expressing its distance, in feet, from a street
right-of-way line or other boundary line as indicated and running
parallel thereto.
B. Determination of Location of Boundaries. Where physical or cultural
features existing on the ground are at variance with those shown or
the Official Zoning Map, or if uncertainty exists as to the true location
of a district boundary line in a particular instance, the Zoning Officer
shall request the Zoning Hearing Board to render its determination
with respect thereto.
