The boundaries of these zoning districts are hereby established on a set of City Tax Maps entitled, "Zoning Maps of the City of Plattsburgh," which maps are kept on file and will be available for public viewing in the Building Inspector's office, and such maps are hereby declared to be a part of this chapter. For informational purposes, a zoning boundary map of the City of Plattsburgh, at an approximate scale of one inch equals 1,800 feet, has been prepared and is
included as an attachment to this chapter.
Unless shown to the contrary on the Zoning Maps, the boundary
lines of districts are the center lines of streets and alleys or such
lines extended, railroad right-of-way lines, the center lines of creeks
and waterways, lot lines and the corporate limit line as it existed
at the time of the enactment of this chapter. Where a district boundary
line, as appearing on the Zoning Maps, divides a lot or land in single
ownership as existing at the time of enactment, the use of the lot
shall be divided to conform to each zoning district as shown on the
Zoning Map.
Except as provided in this chapter, no building or part thereof
or other structure shall be erected, altered, added to or enlarged
nor shall any land, building, structure or premises be used, designed
or intended to be used for any purpose other than as for the uses
hereinafter listed as permitted, accessory and special uses established
in the district in which such building, land or premises is located.
Any land hereafter annexed to or consolidated with the City
of Plattsburgh shall be classified by an amendment to this chapter
as part of the annexation or consolidation of such land.
