Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of any
of the aforesaid districts shown on the zoning map, the following
rules shall apply:
(1)
Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following
the centerlines, street lines, or highway right-of-way lines, such
lines shall be construed to be said boundaries.
(2)
Where district boundaries are so dedicated that they approximately
follow the lot lines, such lot lines shall be construed to be said
boundaries.
(3)
Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following
a parallel to a drainage course or other prominent physical feature,
such drainage course, other prominent physical feature, or parallel
line shall be construed to be said boundaries.
(4)
Where district boundaries are so indicated that they are approximately
parallel to the centerline or street lines of streets, or the centerlines
or right-of-way lines of highways, such district boundaries shall
be construed as being parallel thereto and at such distance therefrom
as indicated on the zoning map. If no distance is given, such dimensions
are determined by the use of the scale of said zone.
(5)
Where district boundaries are so indicated that they are approximately
perpendicular to the centerline or right-of-way lines of streets,
highways, or drainage courses, such district boundaries shall be construed
to be perpendicular to said streets, highways, or drainage courses.
(6)
If unsubdivided property, the district boundary lines on the
zoning map shall be determined by use of the scale appearing on the
map.
(7)
In the case of a district boundary line dividing a lot into
two (2) parts, the district boundary line shall be construed to be
the lot line nearest the district boundary line as shown.
(8)
Whenever any street, alley, or other public way is vacated by
official action of the city council, the zoning district adjoining
each side of such street, alley, or public way shall be automatically
extended to the center of such variation and all area included in
the variation shall then and henceforth be subject to all regulations
of the extended districts.
(9)
Where the streets or alleys on the ground differ from the streets
or alleys as shown on the zoning map, the streets or alleys on the
ground shall control.
