Whenever any street, alley, or other public way is vacated by the City Council of the City of St. John, Missouri, the St. Louis County Council, or the State of Missouri, the zoning districts adjoining or on each side of such street, alley, or public way shall automatically be extended to the centerline of such vacation and all area included in the vacation shall then be subject to all applicable regulations of the extended districts.
