In determining the boundaries of districts shown in the Zoning
Map, the following rules shall apply:
A. Unless otherwise shown, the district boundary lines shall be construed
to coincide with the center lines of streets, alleys, parkways, waterways,
railroad rights-of-way, or such lines extended.
B. Where such boundary lines are indicated as approximately following
the property lines of parks or other publicly owned lands, such lines
shall be construed to be such boundaries.
C. In all cases where a district boundary line divides a lot in one
ownership, and more than 50% of the area of such lot lies in the less
restricted district, the regulations prescribed by this chapter for
the less restricted district shall apply to such portion of said lot
that lies in the more restricted portion of said lot.
D. In all cases where a district boundary line is located not farther
than 15 feet away from a lot line of record, such boundary line shall
be construed to coincide with such lot line.
E. In all other cases where dimensions are not shown on the map, the
location of district boundary lines shown on the map shall be determined
by the use of the scale appearing thereon.
F. In cases of uncertainty or disagreement as to the true location of
any zone boundary line, the determination thereof shall lie with the
Board of Adjustment, as hereinafter provided.
Following the effective date of this chapter:
A. No building shall be erected, moved, altered, rebuilt or enlarged,
except as specified elsewhere in this chapter, nor shall any land
or building be used, designed or arranged to be used for any purpose
or in any manner except in conformity with all regulations, requirements,
and/or restrictions specified in this chapter for the district in
which such building or land is located.
B. No yard or open space required in connection with any building or
use shall be considered as providing a required open space for any
other building on the same or any other lot.
C. No lot shall be formed from part of a lot already occupied by a building
unless such building, all yards and open spaces connected therewith,
and the remaining lot comply with all requirements prescribed by this
chapter for the district in which said lot is located. No permit shall
be issued for the erection of a building on any new lot thus created
unless such building and lot comply with all the provisions of this
chapter.
