To further the purposes and intent of this chapter and provide for
the public health safety and welfare, the area of the Town of Secaucus,
exclusive of the area defined on the Official Zoning Map of the Hackensack
Meadowlands District, is hereby divided into zones or districts as
follows:
The zoning map entitled "Zoning Map, Town of Secaucus, Hudson County,
New Jersey," dated April 1987, as it may be amended, is hereby adopted
and made a part of this chapter.
Zoning district boundary lines are intended to follow street centerlines,
railroad rights-of-way, streams 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 Zoning Board of
Adjustment pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:55D-70b.
Where boundaries are not fixed by dimensions and where they approximately
follow lot lines and where they do not scale more than 20 feet distant
therefrom, the street centerlines, railroad rights-of-way, streams
and lot lines shall be construed to be such boundaries.
Where a zoning district boundary divides a lot, the location of the
boundary, unless indicated by dimensions on the Zoning Map, shall
be determined by use of the stated scale on the Map.
