Blue Ridge City Zoning Code

Boundaries of the districts as enumerated in Section 3 of this Ordinance are hereby established and adopted as the zoning maps of the City of Blue Ridge which are made a part of this Ordinance as fully as if the same were set forth herein in detail. Two original and identical copies of the zoning maps are hereby adopted bearing the signature of the Mayor and attestation of the City Secretary. One such copy shall be titled City of Blue Ridge, Zoning Map as Adopted (Ordinance #2002-0305, dated 03/05/02). This copy shall be retained as the original map and shall not be changed in any manner. The second such copy shall be titled City of Blue Ridge, Zoning Map as Adopted (Ordinance #2002-0305, dated 03/05/02), with Zoning District Amendments, and shall be kept in a convenient location in the City Hall for the use and benefit of the public. This copy shall be kept up-to-date, posting thereon all changes and subsequent amendments as individual zoning requests or changes are approved. Each change should be marked with the zoning district classification, amending ordinance number and date.

It shall be the duty of the Secretary of the Planning and Zoning Commission to keep up-to-date the duplicate original on file in the City Council Room, showing all changes, amendments or additions thereto, and noting on such map the Ordinance number and date of passage of each change, amendment or addition.

When definite distance[s] in feet are not shown on the zoning maps, the district boundaries are intended to be along existing street, alley, or plotted lot lines, or an extension of the same.

Whenever any street or alley is vacated, the particular zoning applying to the property fronting and/or abutting on any such street or alley shall upon such vacation be an extension of the same.
