§ 5.10.3. Interpretation of district boundaries.

Except as otherwise specifically provided, a district symbol or name shown within district boundaries on the official zoning map indicates that district regulations pertaining to the district extend throughout the whole area surrounded by the boundary line. Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of any district shown on said maps, the following rules shall apply:

1.

Street and alley lines. Where boundaries are indicated as approximately following street and alley lines, land lot lines, military district lines or lot lines, such line shall be construed to be such boundaries.

2.

Unsubdivided property or tracts. In unsubdivided property or tracts, where a district boundary divides a lot, the location of such boundaries, unless same are indicated by dimensions, shall be determined by use of the scale appearing on such maps.

3.

Abandonment. Where a public road, street, or alley is officially vacated or abandoned, the regulations applicable to the property to which it is reverted shall apply to such vacated or abandoned road, street, or alley.

4.

Parallel boundaries. Where boundaries are so indicated that they are approximately parallel to the centerline or street lines of streets or to the central lines of alley lines of alleys or the centerlines or right-of-way lines of highways, such boundaries shall be construed as being parallel thereto and at such distance therefrom as indicated on the official zoning maps. If no distance is given, such dimension shall be determined from the supplementary maps.
