The location and boundaries of the districts hereby established are set forth and indicated on a map entitled "Zoning Map," which map, properly identified and dated, is hereby adopted as a part of this chapter, insofar as it indicated said designations, locations and boundaries, and the same shall be deemed to be as much a part of this chapter as if the same were fully described herein. The Borough Secretary shall certify the Zoning Map as part of this chapter and keep it on file in his office.[1]
[1]
Editor's Note: Said map is available in the online version
of the Borough Code or in the Borough offices.
In interpreting the said map, the following
rules shall apply:
A.
Where such boundaries are indicated as approximately
following the center lines of streets, alleys, railroads, waterways
or the boundary lines of parks or other publicly owned land, such
lines shall be construed to be such boundaries.
B.
Where such boundaries are indicated as approximately
following the lines of lots or other parcels of record without dividing
same, such lot or parcel lines shall shall be deemed to be such boundaries.
C.
Where a district boundary divides a parcel of land,
the location of such a boundary is indicated by dimensions shown on
the map.
D.
Distances not specifically determined on the Zoning Map shall be determined by the Zoning Hearing Board.
Any changes in district boundaries or other matters shown on the Zoning Map, after adoption in the way and manner prescribed in Article XVI, shall be promptly made on the map, with a signed statement noting date and description of the change. The ordinance making the change shall provide for its immediate entry upon the Zoning Map.
