The boundaries of these zoning districts are established on
the map entitled "Zoning Map of the Borough of Avon-by-the-Sea", dated
11/2/2005, which accompanies and is hereby made part of this chapter.
Zoning district boundary lines are intended to follow street
centerlines, railroad rights-of-way, and lot or property lines as
they exist on lots of record at the time of enactment of this chapter
unless otherwise indicated by dimensions on the Zoning Map. Any dimensions
shown shall be in feet and measured horizontally and, when measured
from a street, shall be measured from the street right-of-way line
even if the centerline of that street is used for the location of
a zoning district line. The exact location of any disputed zoning
district boundary line shall be determined by the Planning Board.
The zoning standards, controls and designations apply to every structure,
lot and use within each district, and the district lines extend vertically
in both directions from ground level.
Where a zoning district boundary line divides a lot other than
by following a street, any use permitted in either district may be
extended not more than twenty (20) feet into the adjacent district.
A use permitted in the zoning district so extended shall thereafter
be a permitted use in the extended area. A zoning district line, however,
shall be altered only once by utilizing this section of the chapter,
after which the lot use shall be governed by the regulations of the
zoning district in which it is located after the zoning district boundary
line adjustment.
