and as certified by state's Coastal Commission, which map with all
explanatory matters thereon shall be deemed to accompany, be, and
is made a part of these regulations and such map shall be the final
authority as to the current zoning status of land, buildings and other
structures in the city's coastal zone. Where uncertainty exists with
respect to the boundaries of the various districts, as described on
the coastal zoning map and made a part of these regulations, the following
rules shall apply:

The
district boundaries are either streets or alleys unless otherwise

the district boundaries are not otherwise indicated and where the
property has not been or may hereafter be divided into blocks or lots,
the district boundaries shall be construed to be the lot line, and
where the districts designated on the accompanying map made a part
of these regulations are bounded approximately by lot lines, said
lot lines shall be construed to be the boundary of such district.
C.
In
unsubdivided property, the district boundary lines on the accompany
map made a part of these regulations shall be determined by the use
of the scale continued on such map.

districts aforesaid and the boundaries of such districts are shown
upon the map attached to the ordinance codified in this chapter and

If, in accordance with the provisions of these regulations and state statutes, changes are made in the district boundaries or other matters portrayed on the official coastal zoning map, such changes shall be made on the official coastal zoning map promptly after the amendment has been approved by the city council and the state's Coastal Commission.

Upon completion of the redrafting of the map, the planning director shall, under his signature, file said map with the city council.

Unless otherwise established in accordance with procedures set
forth in these regulations for rezoning of property, whenever property
has been vacated or abandoned as a street, alley, or other public
right-of-way, the boundaries of the district shall be determined in
accordance with the following rules:
A.
Wherever
contiguous lands lie in one district, property which has been vacated
or abandoned shall be deemed to be located in that same district.
B.
Whenever
the underlying fee to all or any portion of the property which has
been vacated or abandoned is invested in an owner of contiguous land,
such vacated or abandoned property or portion there-of shall be deemed
to be included in the same district as the land which is both contiguous
thereto and held in the same ownership.
C.
Whenever
contiguous lands lie in two or more districts and the underlying fee
to all or any portion of the property vacated or abandoned is invested
in a person other than an owner of contiguous land, determination
of the district in which such vacated or abandoned property is to
be included shall be in accordance with procedures set forth in these
regulations for rezoning of property.
(Ord. of 2-22-2011(1))
Except as provided herein, any property which is annexed to or consolidated with the city shall be deemed to be classified, except for dedicated streets and roads, as lying and being in the zone decided in accordance with Section 17.63.070.
(Ord. of 2-22-2011(1))
The city may prezone unincorporated territory adjoining the city for the purpose of determining the zoning that will apply to such property in the event of subsequent annexation to the city. The method of accomplishing such prezoning shall be as provided for rezoning in Chapter 17.81. Such zoning shall become effective at the same time that the annexation becomes effective, provided that California Coastal Commission concurrence of the local coastal plan amendment has been approved.
