(Res. 98-529A. Passed 12-21-98.)

   (a)   The boundaries of the districts are shown upon the map on file in the office of the City Clerk and made a part of this Zoning Code, which map is designated as the Zoning Map of the City. The Zoning Map and all notations, references and other information shown thereon are a part of this Zoning Code and have the same force and effect as if such Zoning Map and all such notations, references and other information shown thereon were fully set forth or described herein.

   (b)   Except where reference is shown on the Zoning Map to a street or other designated line by the dimensions shown on such Map, the district boundary lines follow lot lines or centerlines of streets or alleys, or such lines extended, and the corporate limits of the City as they existed at the time of the adoption of this Zoning Code.

   (c)   Where a district boundary line, as established in this Zoning Code or as shown on the Zoning Map, divides a lot which was in a single ownership and of record at the time of enactment of this Zoning Code, the use authorized thereon and the other district requirements applying to the least restricted portion of such lot shall be considered as extending to the entire lot, provided that the more restricted portion of such lots is entirely within twenty-five (25) feet of the dividing district boundary line. The use so extended shall be deemed to be conforming.

   (d)   Questions concerning the exact location of district boundary lines shall be determined by the Zoning Board of Appeals, after recommendation from the Planning Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations which may be adopted by it.

(Res. 98-529A. Passed 12-21-98.)

   (e)   The existing Zoning Map of the City is hereby repealed, and a new Zoning Map, which is on file in the Building Department, is hereby adopted.

(Res. 98-412A. Passed 9-28-98.)

All street and alley rights-of-way, if not otherwise specifically designated, shall be deemed to be in the same zone as the property immediately abutting upon such street and alley rights of way. Where the centerline of a street or alley serves as a district boundary, the zoning of such street or alley, unless otherwise specifically designated, shall be deemed to be the same as that of the abutting property up to such centerline.
