Editor's Note: This local law was amended 11-1-1988 by L.L. No. 6-1988 to provide as follows: "This local law shall take effect immediately upon adoption and filing pursuant to the Municipal Home Rule Law; provided, however, that the village shall act upon any subdivision application filed with the village on or before the effective date of this local law, without regard to the provisions of this local law."
B. 
No building shall be erected, altered or used and no premises shall be used for any other than a purpose permitted in the district in which such building shall be erected, altered or used or such premises used, except in conformity with the regulations herein prescribed for the district in which such building or premises is located.
If any district boundary is a street line or is determined, measured or fixed by or from a street line and such street shall be widened and such new width has been duly authorized and recorded on a duly filed map, then anything in this chapter to the contrary notwithstanding, the district boundary shall not be determined, measured or fixed by or from the new street line, but the rear district boundary shall remain as theretofore, and the depth and extent of the district shall be shortened and lessened accordingly.
In any particular instance where there is doubt as to the exact location of a district boundary line, the Board of Appeals, in conformity with Article XVII, § 203-139A(3), of this chapter, shall have the power to interpret such location so that the intent of this chapter and said maps shall be observed and the neighborhoods affected thereby shall be safeguarded.
