Editor's Note: The Zoning Map is included as an attachment to this chapter.
A. 
From and after the date this chapter becomes effective except as hereinafter specified, no building shall be erected or altered and no building or premises shall be thereafter used for any purpose other than a use permitted in the district in which the building or premises is located and except in conformity with the regulations herein prescribed for the district in which the building is located.
B. 
Where a lot is formed from part of a parcel of land then already improved, the separation must be effected in such manner as not to impair any of the provisions of this section, whether related to the then-existing improvement or to the proposed new improvement.
C. 
There shall be no permanent access to a less restricted zone through a more restricted zone, except by way of a public street.
Boundary lines as shown on the Zoning Map accompanying this chapter are intended to coincide with lot lines, the center lines of streets, drainage courses or railroads as they existed at the time of adoption of this chapter or they are designated on the Zoning Map by figures or dimensions.
In case the boundary line of any district shall run through any lot, the regulation and restrictions of the more restricted district shall apply to the portion of the lot lying within 25 feet at right angles from such boundary line. However, that twenty-five foot portion of a lot may be utilized for parking and buffers as accessory to the more restricted district use.
