§ 203 Boundaries Between Districts.

[Ord. 1983-4, 12/5/1983, § 12.2(c)]
1. 
The boundaries between all districts, except the FA, FW, and FF Districts, are, unless otherwise indicated, either the center lines of streets, alleys, rights-of-way, lot lines, or such lines extended or lines parallel thereto.
2. 
Where figures are shown on the Zoning Map between a street, alley, right-of-way, or lot line, and a district boundary line, they indicate that the district boundary line runs parallel to that line at a distance therefrom equivalent to the number of feet so indicated.
3. 
Where district boundaries are not clearly affixed by the above methods and there is question as to their location, they shall be determined by the use of the scale of the Zoning Map.

§ 204 Interpretation of District Boundaries.

[Ord. 1983-4, 12/5/1983, § 12.2(d); as amended by Ord. 1985-1, 6/3/1985]
When a district boundary line, except that of an FA, FW, or FF District, divides a lot, parcel, or tract of ground, the regulations of either abutting district may be construed by the owner to be applicable to the portion of such lot in the other abutting district for a distance of not more than 50 feet beyond the district boundary line.
