Sec. V-2.1. - Zoning map.

The location and boundaries of zoning districts are hereby established as shown, defined and bounded on an eight-page zoning map originally prepared for the town by Durkee-White-Towne and Chapdelaine, Civil Engineers and Land Surveyors, dated August, 1960 as amended. Said zoning map and amendments thereto as duly adopted shall be considered an integral part of this bylaw.

Sec. V-2.2. - Zoning map interpretation.

For purposes of interpretation of the zoning map, the location of the boundary lines of the districts shown upon the building zone map shall be determined as follows:

2.2.1

Zoning district boundaries which follow streets, railroads, or water courses shall be deemed to coincide with the mean center line thereof.

2.2.2

Where the boundary lines are shown approximately on the location of property or lot lines, and the exact location of the property, lot, or boundary lines is not indicated by means of figures, then the property or lot lines shall be the boundary lines.

2.2.3

Boundary lines located outside of street lines and shown approximately parallel thereto shall be parallel to such street lines. Dimensions between the zoning district boundary lines and streets shall be measured perpendicular to the sideline of such street.

2.2.4

Where a zoning district boundary, other than an overlay district boundary, divides a lot which was in single ownership on February 17, 1955, or upon the effective date of any amendment changing the boundaries of one of the zoning districts in which the lot or a portion of the lot lies, the regulations applicable to either zoning district may be extended to as much of the lot as lies within 30 feet of the adjacent zoning district boundary.

2.2.5

In all cases which are not covered by the other provisions of this section, the location of boundary lines shall be determined by the distances in feet, if given, from other lines upon said map, by the use of identifications as shown on the map, or if none are given, then by the scale of said map.
