§ 500-7 Zoning Map.

The boundaries of said districts shall be shown upon the map attached to and made a part of this chapter, which map is dated and designated as the "East Berlin Borough Zoning Map." The said map and all notations, references, and other data shown therein are hereby incorporated by reference into this chapter as if all were fully described herein.

§ 500-8 District boundaries.

When uncertainty exists as to boundaries of any district as shown on the Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply.
A. 
District boundary lines are intended to follow or be parallel to the center line of streets, streams, railroads, and lot or property lines as they exist on plans of record at the time of the adoption of this chapter, unless such district boundary lines are fixed by dimensions as shown on the Zoning Map.
B. 
Where a district boundary is not fixed by dimensions and where said boundary approximately follows a lot line, and where it does not scale more than 10 feet therefrom, such lot line shall be construed to be such boundary line unless specifically shown otherwise. In case of any uncertainty, the Zoning Officer shall interpret the intent of the map and determine the location of district boundaries.

§ 500-9 Principal use.

Unless specifically provided by this chapter, the provisions of this chapter shall be interpreted to allow only one principal use on a lot.
