Latest version.
  • Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of the various zoning districts as shown on the official zoning map series, the following rules shall apply:

    A.

    A letter and/or number combination shown on the official zoning map series shall indicate that the regulations pertaining to the zoning district of that letter and/or number combination extend throughout the whole area within those zoning district boundary lines, except as otherwise provided by this section.

    B.

    Zoning district boundaries approximately following (adjacent to or within) an alley, canal, lateral, drainage right-of-way, railroad right-of-way, railroad easement or street right-of-way, shall be construed to follow the centerline of the alley, canal, lateral, drainage right-of-way, railroad right-of-way, railroad easement or street right-of-way, and shall be so designated on the official zoning map series.

    C.

    Zoning district boundaries approximately following (adjacent to) a platted lot line, tract line, survey line, or other jurisdictional boundary line, shall be construed to follow the platted lot line, tract line, survey line, or other jurisdictional boundary line, and shall be so designated on the official zoning map series.

    D.

    Where the actual location of an alley, canal, lateral, drainage right-of-way, railroad right-of-way, railroad easement, street right-of-way, platted lot line, tract line, survey line, or other jurisdictional boundary line varies slightly from its location as shown on the official zoning map series, the actual location of the alley, canal, lateral, drainage right-of-way, railroad right-of-way, railroad easement, street right-of-way, platted lot line, tract line, survey line, or other jurisdictional boundary line shall control.

    E.

    Zoning district boundaries dividing a platted lot or tract shall be construed as being located as shown on the official zoning map series, and distances shall be determined by the scale of the map.

    F.

    Where a property has been or may hereafter be divided into platted blocks and lots, the zoning district boundaries approximately following (adjacent to) a platted lot line shall be construed to follow the platted lot line and shall be so designated on the official zoning map series.
