middle of the street and each portion shall be subject to the restrictions
of the zone which lies immediately adjacent to its respective street
line as defined above.
D. Any boundary as approximately following the center
line of a street or highway shall be construed to follow such center
line.
E. Any boundary indicated as approximately following
a Tax Map lot line in existence at the time the boundary becomes effective
shall be construed to follow such lot line.
F. Any boundary indicated as approximately following
the center line of a stream shall be construed to follow such center
line and, in the event of change in the center line, shall be construed
as moving with the actual center line as changed.
G. Any boundary indicated as approximately following
the corporate boundary of the Village of Morrisville shall be construed
as following such corporate boundary.
H. Any boundary indicated as parallel to, or an extension of, a feature indicated in Subsections
D through
