16.08.030 ZONING DISTRICT BOUNDARY INTERPRETATION
Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of districts as shown on the zoning map, the following rules shall apply:
- Boundaries indicated as approximately following the center lines of roads or streets, highways, or alleys shall be construed to follow such center lines.
- Boundaries indicated as approximately following platted lot lines shall be construed as following such lot lines.
- Boundaries indicated as approximately following town limits shall be construed as following such town limits.
- Boundaries indicated as approximately following center lines of streams or canals shall be construed to follow such center lines.
- Boundaries indicated as parallel to or extensions of features indicated in subsections B through D above shall be so construed. Distances not specifically indicated on the zoning map shall be determined by the scale of the map.
- Where physical or cultural features existing on the ground are at variance with those shown on the zoning map, or in other circumstances not covered by subsections A through E above, the administrator shall interpret the zone district boundaries.
- Where a zone district boundary line divides a lot which was in single ownership at the time of passage of this ordinance, the legislative body may permit, as a special exception, the extension of the regulations for either portion of the lot not to exceed fifty feet (50’) beyond the district line into the remaining portion of the lot.
- Wherever such boundary line of such district is indicated as being approximately at the line of any irrigation canal, other waterway, railroad right-of-way, public park or other public land, or any section line, then in such case the center of such canal or waterway, or of such railroad right-of-way, or the boundary line of such public land or such section line, shall be deemed to be the boundary of such district.
- Where the application of the above rules does not clarify the zone district boundary location, the administrator shall interpret the map. Appeals from said interpretation shall be filed with the legislative body.
