§ 02.03. District Boundaries Interpreted

Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of the various districts as shown on the Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply:

(a)

When the exact boundaries of a district are uncertain, they shall be determined by use of the scale on the Zoning Maps.

(b)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streets, highways, or alleys, shall be construed to follow the centerlines.

(c)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following platted lot lines shall be construed as following the lot lines.

(d)

Boundaries indicated as following railroad lines shall be construed to be the midway between the main tracks.

(e)

Boundaries indicated as following shorelines shall be construed to follow the shoreline, and in the event of change in the shoreline shall be construed as moving with the actual shoreline; boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerline of streams, rivers, canals, lakes or other bodies of water shall be construed to follow the centerline. Any use or structures extending into or over a lake or other water body shall be subject to the same zoning restrictions as the adjoining land.

(f)

When a right-of-way is vacated, the districts adjoining each side are respectively extended to the center of the area so vacated.
