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