The aforesaid zones are bounded and further
defined on the map known as the "Official Zoning Map, Sandyston Township,
Sussex County, New Jersey," prepared by Delaware Valley Associates, Inc., December
31, 1998, as amended. The zoning designations of the following parcels
are hereby changed as set forth on Schedule A, which is attached hereto
and incorporated hereby by reference.
[Amended 7-2-1996 by Ord. No. 4-96]
Where uncertainty exists as to any boundary
shown on the Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply for guiding
the Planning Board in cases before it requiring interpretation of
the Zoning Map:
A. Zone boundaries are intended to follow streams, contact
lines between geologic formation and the property lines of lots as
they exist at the time of passage of this chapter, unless fixed by
dimensions shown on the map.
B. Where such boundaries are not fixed by dimensions
and where they approximately follow lot lines and where they do not
scale more than 10 feet distant therefrom, such lot lines shall be
construed to be the actual zone boundaries.
C. In undivided land and where a zone boundary divides
a lot, the location of the boundary shall be determined by the use
of the scale appearing in the Zoning Map, unless the location is shown
by dimensions displayed on the map or is drawn between corners of
a lot or lots.
[Amended 10-2-1975]
The standards of zoning for lot sizes applicable
within a given zone or district, along with other factors relating
to yards, etc., are presented in the Schedule of Limitations and Zoning
Standards and made a part of the regulations of this chapter.
