For the purpose of this chapter, the land and water courses contained within the boundaries of the Borough of Abbottstown, and determined by the Borough Council of Abbottstown to be subject to this Zoning Ordinance, is hereby designated into the following districts:
LDR: Low Density Residential
MDR: Moderate Density Residential
TCR: Town Center Residential
TCMU: Town Center Mixed Use
CI: Commercial Industrial
The boundaries of said districts shall be shown upon the map attached to and made a part of this chapter, which map is dated, and designated as the "Abbottstown Borough Zoning Map." The said map and all notations, references, and other data shown thereon are hereby incorporated by reference into this chapter as if all were fully described herein.
When uncertainty exists as to boundaries of any district as shown on said map, the following rules shall apply:
A. 
District boundary lines are intended to follow or be parallel to the center line of streets, streams, railroads, and lot or property lines as they exist on plans of record at the time of the adoption of this chapter, unless such district boundary lines are fixed by dimensions as shown on the zoning map.
B. 
Where a district boundary is not fixed by dimensions and where said boundary approximately follows a lot line, and where it does not scale more than 10 feet therefrom, such lot line shall be construed to be such boundary line unless specifically shown otherwise. In case of any uncertainty, the Zoning Officer shall interpret the intent of the map and determine the location of district boundaries.
If the provisions contained in the zoning districts or any other regulations found in this chapter are determined by the Zoning Officer to be in conflict with another provision of this chapter, the least restrictive regulations shall be applied, unless otherwise stated.
