Editor's Note: The Zoning Map is included as an attachment to this chapter.
Where uncertainty exists as to boundaries of any districts shown
on the Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply:
A.
Where zoning district boundaries
are so indicated as approximately coinciding with the center lines
of streets, highways, railroad lines or streams, or ridgelines, such
center lines shall be construed to be the zoning district boundaries.
B.
Where zoning district boundaries are so indicated that they approximately
coincide with lot lines, such lot lines shall be construed to be the
zoning district boundaries.
C.
Where zoning district boundaries are so indicated that they are approximately
parallel to center lines of streets and highways, the zoning district
boundaries shall be construed as parallel thereto and at such distances
from the center line as indicated on the Zoning Map.
D.
For unsubdivided land or where a zoning district boundary divides
a lot, the location of the zoning district boundary, unless dimensions
are indicated, shall be determined by the use of the scale appearing
on the Zoning Map.
In the case of any uncertainty as to zoning district boundaries
on the Zoning Map, the Zoning Officer shall determine the zoning district
boundaries; however, the Zoning Officer's determination may be appealed
to the Zoning Hearing Board.
