(a)

This chapter shall be administered and enforced by an officer to be known as the zoning administrator, who shall be appointed by the council. The zoning administrator shall have all necessary authority on behalf of the council to administer and enforce this chapter, including the ordering in writing of the remedying of any condition found in violation of this chapter, and the bringing of legal action to insure compliance herewith, including injunction, abatement, or other appropriate action or proceeding.

(b)

The zoning administrator may request and shall receive, so far as may be necessary in the discharge of his duties, the assistance and cooperation of the chief of police in enforcing orders, of the town attorney in prosecuting violations, and of other town officials.

(Code 1990, § 15-411; Ord. of 1-18-1979, § 16-1)

(a)

Unless district boundary lines are fixed by dimensions or otherwise clearly shown or described, and where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of any of such districts as shown on the zoning map, this section shall apply.

(b)

Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following or being at right angles to the centerlines of streets, highways, alleys, or railroad main tracks, such centerlines or lines at right angles to such centerlines shall be construed to be such boundaries, as the case may be.

(c)

Where a boundary is indicated to follow a river, creek, branch or other body of water, the boundary shall be construed to follow the centerline at low water or at the limits of the jurisdiction; and, in the event of change in the shoreline, such boundary shall be construed as moving with the actual shoreline.

(d)

If no distance, angle, curvature, description, or other means is given to determine a boundary line accurately and subsections (b) and (c) of this section do not apply, the same shall be determined by the use of the scale shown on the zoning map. In case of subsequent dispute, the matter shall be referred to the board of zoning appeals, which shall determine the boundary.
