The provisions of this title are declared to be in effect upon all land within the boundaries of each district established in this chapter. No lot or parcel of land nor any building shall be used or occupied for any purpose or in any manner not specifically permitted in the regulations as applicable to the land use district in which such lot or building is situated.

(Prior code §24-12).

In order to classify, regulate, restrict and segregate the use of land, the location, use and bulk of structures, and to carry out the purposes of this title, nine land use districts are established as follows:

(Ord. 447 §2(part), 1977; prior code §24-6).

The several districts established by Section 21.20.020 and boundaries of such districts and each of them are established and adopted as shown on that map entitled "Land Use Map, a Part of the Master Plan of Fallon, Nevada," which map is made a part of this title together with all notations, references, data and other information thereon. All subsequent changes and amendments to such plan or this title shall be equally effective as if incorporated in the plan as adopted.

(Prior code §24-7).

It is declared that in the creation of this title and the land use plan, the city council has given careful consideration to the suitability of each district for the regulations applied thereto, the location and extent of each district, and the comprehensive grouping and arrangement of the various uses and densities of populations in accordance with a well considered plan for the development of the city and its desirable relationship to adjoining jurisdictions.

(Prior code §24-8).

Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of land use districts as shown, the following shall apply:

A.

Boundaries are intended to parallel street lines or to follow lot lines as they exist at the time of passage of the ordinance codified in this title, unless specifically shown otherwise.

B.

In cases of uncertainty, the planning commission shall interpret the intent of the boundary location.

(Prior code §24-9).

A.

Territory annexed to the city subsequent to the effective date of the ordinance codified in this title, shall, upon date of annexation, be classified by the planning commission and city council in a zone appropriate to its location and relationship to the general plan as adopted by this title.

B.

Normally all improvements to property required by the subdivision ordinance shall be accomplished at the time of annexation to the city and also when new construction or major modifications occur on lots already within the city except:

1.

Annexation of E-1 and E-2 First Estates Property.

The planning commission will establish in the annexation document those required improvements of the subdivision ordinance that shall apply. If alleys are not required, a minimum of a ten-foot side yard on one side of the dwelling will apply to allow rear yard access.

(Ord. 447 §2(part), 1977; prior code §24-11).

In the event a dedicated street or alley is hereafter abandoned, the regulations applicable to abutting properties shall apply to that portion of such right-of-way as vacated.

(Prior code §24-10).
