The location and boundaries of the districts established by
this chapter are on a map entitled "Town of Ogden Zoning Map," which
is on file with the Town Clerk and declared to be a part of this chapter.
In determining the boundaries of districts shown on the Town
of Ogden Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply:
A. Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following
the center lines of streets, highways, waterways or railroad rights-of-way
or such lines extended, such center lines shall be construed to be
such boundaries.
B. Where such boundaries are indicated as approximately following the
property lines of parks or other publicly owned lands, such lines
shall be construed to be such boundaries.
C. Unless otherwise shown, all district boundaries running parallel
to streets shall be construed to be 200 feet back from the rights-of-way
of said streets.
D. In all cases where a district boundary divides a lot in one ownership
and more than 50% of the area of such lot lies in the less restricted
district, the regulations prescribed by this chapter for the less
restricted district shall apply to such portion of the more restricted
portion of said lot which lies within 30 feet of such district boundary.
For purposes of this section, the more restricted district shall be
deemed that district subject to regulations which prohibit the use
intended to be made of said lot or which require higher standards
with respect to coverage, yards, screening, landscaping and similar
requirements.
E. In all cases where a district boundary line is located not farther
than 15 feet away from a lot line of record, such boundary line shall
be construed to coincide with such lot line.
F. In all other cases where dimensions are not shown on the map, the
location of boundaries shown on the map shall be determined by the
use of the graphic scale on the Zoning Map.
G. Appeals of the Code Enforcement Officer's determination of zoning
boundaries shall be made to the Zoning Board of Appeals, who shall
use these guidelines as a basis for their deliberations.
H. In all cases where the existing zoning is different from that indicated
in the Comprehensive Plan, as adopted by the Ogden Town Board, the
Planning Board, at its discretion, may impose the area standards of
the more restrictive zoning.
