§ 129-97 Interpretation and application of provisions.
In their interpretation and application, the provisions of this chapter shall be held to be the minimum requirements for the promotion of the health, safety, morals and the general welfare of the Village.
A.
Wherever the regulations made herein require a greater width or size of yards, courts or other open spaces or require a lower height of building or lesser number of stories or require a greater percentage of lot to be left unoccupied or impose restrictions more extensive than are required in any other statute, ordinance or private covenant or restriction, the provisions of the regulations of this chapter shall govern.
B.
Wherever the provisions of any other statute or ordinance require a greater width or size of yards, courts or other open spaces or require a lower height of building or lesser number of stories or require a greater percentage of lot to be left unoccupied or impose restrictions more extensive than are required by this chapter, the provisions of such statute, ordinance or private covenant or restriction shall govern.
C.
It is not intended by this chapter to amend, repeal, abrogate, annul or to impair or interfere with covenants, easements or restrictions between persons or to rescind a building permit heretofore issued by the Building Inspector of the Village. However, no provision in any such covenant, deed restriction or contract shall be deemed to justify noncompliance with any provision of this chapter.
§ 129-98 District boundary lines.
If for any reason the location of any district boundary line is not readily determinable from the Zoning Map,[1] the location of such line shall be fixed by the Building Inspector in accordance with the following provisions. Where more than one of the following provisions are applicable, the first enumerated applicable provision shall prevail:
A.
Where a district boundary line is shown within a street or road or the prolongation thereof, the district boundary line shall be deemed to be the center line of such street or road or the prolongation thereof, except that, where a district boundary line is shown as following a boundary line of the Village, the district boundary line shall be deemed to coincide with such Village boundary line.
B.
Where a district boundary line is shown as approximately following platted lot lines, the district boundary line shall be deemed to coincide with such platted lines.
C.
Where a district boundary line is shown as following the line of mean sea level of Mill Neck Creek or the shoreline of Beaver Lake, the district boundary line shall be deemed to coincide with such line or shoreline, as the case may be.
D.
Where a district boundary line divides a platted lot or crosses a road or unsubdivided property, the location of the district boundary line shall be fixed from the scale of the Zoning Map.
