(a)

There shall be a map known and designated as the Official Zoning Map, which shall show the boundaries of all zoning districts within the Town's planning jurisdiction. This map shall be drawn on acetate or other durable material from which prints can be made, shall be dated and shall be kept in the Town Hall.

(b)

The Official Zoning Map dated March 18, 1996, is adopted and incorporated herein by reference. Amendments to this map shall be made and posted in accordance with Section 16-4-30 below.

(c)

Should the Official Zoning Map be lost, destroyed or damaged, the Administrator may have a new map drawn on acetate or other durable material from which prints can be made. No further authorization or action by the Board of Trustees is required so long as no district boundaries are changed in this process.

(Ord. 1-96, 1996, § 1; Ord. 2017-11, 2017, § 1)

Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of districts as shown on the Official Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply:

(1)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of alleys, streets, highways, streams or railroads shall be construed to follow such centerlines;

(2)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following lot lines, Town limits or extraterritorial boundary lines shall be construed as following such lines, limits or boundaries;

(3)

Where a district boundary divides a lot or where distances are not specifically indicated on the Official Zoning Map, the boundary shall be determined by measurement, using the scale of the official zoning map; and

(4)

Where any street or alley is hereafter officially vacated or abandoned, the regulations applicable to each parcel of abutting property shall apply to that portion of such street or alley added thereto by virtue of such vacation or abandonment.

(Ord. 1-96, 1996, § 1; Ord. 2017-11, 2017, § 1)

(a)

Amendments to the Official Zoning Map are accomplished using the procedures that apply to other amendments to this Chapter, as set forth in Article III of this Chapter.

No unauthorized person may alter or modify the Official Zoning Map.
