Heidelberg Borough is hereby divided into districts of different
types, each type being of such number, shape, kind, and area of such
common unity of purpose and adaptability of use that are deemed most
suitable to carry out the objectives of this chapter and the Borough's
Comprehensive Plan.
For the purpose of this chapter, the Borough of Heidelberg is
hereby divided into four zoning districts and two overlays:
R-1
|
Class One Residential District
|
R-2
|
Class Two Residential District
|
C
|
Commercial District
|
M
|
Manufacturing District
|
Mixed-Use Overlay
|
East Railroad Street Streetscape Overlay

The boundaries of the various zoning districts are hereby established
on a map, entitled the "Heidelberg Borough Zoning Map." This map is
hereby made a part of this chapter and shall be kept on file at the
Borough Office. All amendments to the map shall be identified on the
map and shall be certified.
The boundaries of the various districts, as shown on the Borough
Zoning Map, shall be identified as follows:
1. Where the indicated boundaries of the Zoning Map are approximately
lot lines, or property lines, said lines shall be construed to be
boundaries of such district, unless otherwise indicated.
2. Where the indicated boundaries on the Zoning Map are approximately
public rights-of-way, the centerline of said public rights-of-way
shall be construed to be the boundaries.
3. Where the indicated boundaries are dimensioned on the Zoning Map,
said dimensions shall determine the boundaries.
4. Where the indicated boundaries are not approximately lot or property
lines or public rights-of-way, and where said boundaries are not dimensioned,
the boundaries shall be determined by scaling on the Zoning Map.
5. Where physical or cultural features existing on the ground are at
variance with those shown on the Zoning Map, the Zoning Hearing Board
shall interpret the district boundaries.
