[Ord. No. 1101-2008 §§1 — 2, 10-20-2008]
Boundaries of the districts, as enumerated in this Article,
are hereby established as shown on a map prepared for that purpose,
which map is hereby designated as the Zoning District Map; and said
map and all the notations, references and information shown thereon
is hereby made as much a part of this Unified Development Code as
if the same were set forth in full herein. It shall be the duty of
the Community Development Department to keep on file an authentic
copy of said map and all changes, amendments or additions thereto.
[Ord. No. 1101-2008 §§1 — 2, 10-20-2008]
A. In
the event that uncertainties exist with respect to the intended boundaries
of the various districts as shown on the zoning map(s), the following
rules shall apply:
1. The district boundaries are the centerlines of streets or alleys,
unless otherwise indicated.
2. Where the district boundaries do not coincide with the location of
streets or alleys but do coincide with lot lines, such lot lines shall
be construed to be the boundary of such district.
3. Where the district boundaries do not coincide with the location of
streets, alleys or lot lines, the district boundaries shall be determined
by the use of the scale shown on the zoning map unless an exact distance
is shown.
4. Where the district boundaries are otherwise indicated, and where
the property has been or may hereafter be divided into blocks or lots,
the district boundaries shall be construed to be property lines, and
where the districts designated on the map accompanying and made a
part of the ordinance are bounded approximately by lot lines, the
lot lines shall be construed to be the boundary of the districts unless
the boundaries are otherwise indicted on the map.
5. In unsubdivided property the district boundary lines on the map accompanying
and made a part of this Unified Development Code shall be determined
by use of the scale appearing on the map.
6. In case of a district boundary line dividing a platted lot into two
(2) parts, the district boundary line shall be construed to be the
property line nearest the less restricted district.
7. Whenever any street, alley or other public way is vacated by official
action of the Board of Aldermen, the zoning district adjoining each
side of such street, alley or public way shall automatically be extended
to the center of such vacancy and all area included in the vacancy
shall then and henceforth be subject to all regulations of the extended
districts.
