      1.   Public Ways: The district boundaries are either streets or alleys unless otherwise shown, and where the districts designated on the zoning district map are bounded approximately by street or alley lines, the centerline of such street or alley shall be construed to be the boundary of the district.

      2.   Lot Lines: Where the district boundaries are not otherwise indicated, and where the property has been or is divided into blocks and lots, the district boundaries shall be construed to be the lot lines, and where the districts designated on the district map are bounded approximately by lot lines, the lot lines shall be construed to be the boundary of the districts unless the boundaries are otherwise indicated on the map.

      3.   Zoning District Map: In unsubdivided property, the district boundary lines on the zoning district map shall be determined by use of the scale appearing on the map. (Ord. 2002-02, 1-17-2002; amd. 2003 Code)
