Custody of maps. Regardless of the existence of purported copies of all or part of the official zoning map, which may from time to time be made or published, the official zoning map, which shall be maintained by the office of the city manager, shall be the final authority as to the current zoning status of all lands and waters in the incorporated area of the city.

6.

Retention of earlier zoning map. All zoning maps, or remaining portions thereof, which have been officially adopted and recognized as the official zoning map for the City of Oldsmar prior to the effective date of adoption of these zoning regulations, shall be retained as a public record and as a guide to the zoning status of lands and waters prior to such date.

7.

Replacement of official zoning map. If the official zoning map, or any page or portion thereof, becomes damaged, lost, destroyed, or difficult to interpret by reason of the nature or number of changes, the city council may, by resolution, adopt a new official zoning map, or any page or pages thereof, which shall supersede the prior official zoning map, or page or pages thereof. The new official zoning map, or page or pages thereof, may correct drafting or other errors or omissions in the prior official zoning map, or page or pages thereof, but no such correction shall have the effect of amending the original official zoning map, or page or pages thereof.

If, in the process of adopting a replacement official zoning map, or any page or pages thereof, district boundaries are changed or altered, then action in regard to such change of district boundaries shall be taken only in the form of an amendment to these zoning regulations.

The new official zoning map, or page or portion thereof, shall be authenticated, as for the original, with wording to the following effect:

"This is to certify that this Official Zoning Map (or page or pages thereof) replaced the Official Zoning Map (or page or pages thereof) adopted ;daterule; A.D., 20 ____________ as part of Ordinance (or Resolution) No. ____________ of the City of Oldsmar, Florida."

Unless the prior official zoning map has been lost or has been totally destroyed, the prior map, or any significant parts thereof remaining, shall be preserved as a public record together with all available records pertaining to its adoption or amendment.
