Editor's Note: The Zoning Map is on file in the office of the City Clerk.
A. 
Designation of district boundaries. The district boundary lines are intended generally to follow the center lines of streets; the center lines of railroad rights-of-way; existing lot lines; the center lines of rivers, streams and other waterways; and City boundary lines. Where a district boundary line does not follow such a line, its position shall be shown on the Zoning Map by a specific dimension expressing its distance in feet from a street line or other boundary line as indicated.
B. 
Determination of locations of boundaries. In case of uncertainty as to the true location of a district boundary line in a particular instance, the Common Council shall request the Planning Board to render its determination with respect thereto.
Any land hereafter annexed to or consolidated with the City of Lockport shall be deemed to be zoned unclassified until such land is reclassified by an amendment to this chapter.
