The boundaries of the districts shall be as
shown on the map attached to and a part of this chapter, which map
shall be known as the "Zoning Map of Maple Shade Township." Said map
and all notations, references and data shown thereon, and any subsequent
amendments thereto, are hereby incorporated by reference to this chapter
and shall be as much a part of this chapter as if all were fully described
herein.
The boundaries between districts are, unless
otherwise indicated, either the center lines of streets or railroad
rights-of-way or such line extended or lines parallel or perpendicular
thereto. Where figures are shown on the Zoning Map between a street
and a district boundary line, they indicate that the district boundary
line runs parallel to the street line at a distance therefrom equivalent
to the number of feet so indicated.
Where a district boundary line divides a lot
which was held in single and separate ownership at the time the boundary
line was established, the use regulations applicable to the less restricted
district shall extend over the portion of the lot in the more restricted
district a distance of not more than 50 feet beyond the district boundary
line.
