The boundaries of these districts are hereby established as
shown on the map entitled "Zoning Map of the Borough of Mount Ephraim"
which accompanies and is hereby made a part of this chapter and which
shall now reflect that the properties known as "Block 123.02, Lots
1.01 and 1.02" on the Tax Map of the Borough of Mount Ephraim shall
henceforth be designated Mid-Rise Residential.
District boundary lines are intended to follow street center
lines, railroads and lot or property lines as they exist at the time
of enactment of this chapter unless otherwise indicated by dimensions
on the Zoning Map. The exact location of any disputed district boundary
line shall be determined by the Joint Land Use Board. The zoning standards,
controls and designations apply to every structure, lot and use within
each district and the district lines extend vertically in both directions
from ground level.
Where a district boundary line divides a lot other than by following
a street, any use permitted in either district may be extended not
more than 50 feet into the adjacent district, or to the boundary line
of the divided lot, whichever is the lesser, by the owner or owners
of the lot at the time of passage of this chapter. A use permitted
in the district so extended shall thereafter be permitted only one
election, after which the lot use shall be governed by the regulations
of the district which has been extended.
Where a vacated street is bounded on either side by different
districts, the former center line of the vacated right-of-way shall
be considered the district boundary line.
