§ 1.30. Determination of boundaries.


Latest version.
  • In determining the location of zoning district boundaries on the map accompanying and made a part of these regulations, the following rules shall apply:

    1.

    Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following lot lines, alleys, street or highway right-of-way lines, or extensions of such lines, such lines shall be construed to be boundary lines of the district.

    2.

    Where district boundaries are so indicated that they are approximately parallel to the centerlines or street lines of streets, or the centerlines or rights-of-way of highways, such district boundaries shall be construed as being parallel thereto and to such distance therefrom as indicated on the zoning map. If no distance is given, such dimension shall be determined by the use of the scale on said zoning map.

    3.

    Where district boundaries are shown on undivided property, the location shall be determined by the scale shown on the map unless dimensions are given on the map or in the ordinance governing the zone.

    4.

    Where physical features existing on the ground are at variance with those shown on the official zoning map, or in other circumstances not covered within the text, the city manager or his duly appointed representative shall interpret the district boundaries. Appeals shall be to the board of adjustments.
