§ 190-6 Interpretation of district boundaries.

Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of the various districts as shown on the Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply:
The district boundaries are intended to be lot lines unless otherwise shown, and where the designation of the Zoning Map indicates a boundary approximately upon a lot line, it shall be construed to be the boundary.
Distances shown on the Zoning Map are intended to be perpendicular distances from the street lines measured back to the zoning district boundary lines, which lines in all cases where distances are given are parallel to the street line.
In other cases the boundary line shall be determined by use of the scale of the Zoning Map.

§ 190-7 Lots in more than one zoning district.

Where a district boundary line divides a lot in single or joint ownership of record at the time such line is adopted, the regulations for the less restricted portion of such lot shall extend not more than 30 feet into the most restricted portion, provided that the lot has frontage on a street in the less restricted portion.
