Where the boundary of a district follows a railroad line, such boundary shall be deemed to be located midway between the main tracks of said railroad line.
Where the boundary of a district follows a stream or other body of water, said boundary line shall be deemed to be the center line of stream or body of water unless otherwise indicated.
Where the district boundary lines are indicated to be approximately parallel to a street or highway, they will be considered to be 200 feet from the nearest street or highway line and parallel to it or along the back line of properties of record fronting on said street or highway, whichever line is closer to the street at the time this chapter becomes effective, unless otherwise noted.
