A.
Where the boundary lines are shown upon the Zoning Map within the
lines of public or private ways, the center lines of the ways shall
be the boundary lines.
B.
Boundary lines located outside the lines of ways and shown approximately
parallel thereto shall be regarded as parallel thereto, and dimensions
shown in figures placed upon the Zoning Map between the boundary and
the lines of ways are the distances in feet of the boundary lines
from the lines of ways, such distances being measured at right angles
to the lines of ways unless otherwise indicated.
C.
In all cases which are not covered by other provisions of this subsection,
the location of boundary lines shall be determined by the distance
in feet, if given, from other lines or points on the Zoning Map, by
the use of monuments or other identifiable points shown on the Zoning
Map, or by the scale of the Zoning Map.
D.
Boundary lines of Flood Plain Districts are indicated by dotted lines
on the Zoning Map and where marked by a numerical figure followed
by the letters msl, the location of the line shall coincide with the
contour line at that number of feet above mean sea level.
Where a district boundary line divides a lot in a single or
joint ownership at the time such line is adopted, the regulations
for the less restricted portion of such lot shall extend not more
than 30 feet into the more restricted portion, provided the lot has
the required frontage on a street in the less restricted district.
