The boundaries of said districts shall be as
shown upon the map attached to and made a part of this chapter, which
shall be designated the "Zoning Map." Said map and all notations,
references and other things shown thereon shall be made a part of
this chapter as if the matters and things shown by said map were all
fully described herein.
Where uncertainty exists with respect to the
boundaries of the various districts, as shown on the Zoning Map, the
following rules shall apply:
A. The district boundaries are the street lines, unless
otherwise shown.
B. Where the district boundaries are not shown to be
street lines, the boundaries shall be construed to be property lines
or dimensions from street lines.
C. When a district boundary line passes through a parcel
of land with no indication of distance, the scale of the map shall
determine the location of such line.
Whenever federal- or state-owned property or
property owned by any federal or state agency or any political subdivision
thereof is included in one or more zoning districts, it shall be subject
to the provisions of this chapter only insofar as permitted by the
Constitution and laws of the United States of America and the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania.
From and after the effective date of this chapter,
no building shall be erected, altered or used and no land shall be
used save for a use or uses, together with uses accessory thereto,
in conformity with the requirements of this chapter.
