ZONING DISTRICTS ESTABLISHED; ZONING MAP
(a)
The city is divided into zones as shown on the zoning map and filed with the city clerk. The map, as amended, and all explanatory material thereon is made a part of this chapter.

Zoning districts shall be designated as follows:
(Code 1977, § 17.06.010; Ord. No. 1037, § 6, 2-2-2010)
State Law reference— Districts authorized, 11 O.S. § 43-102.
Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of any of the districts as shown on the zoning map, the following rules shall apply:
(1)
Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streets or highways, street lines or highway right-of-way lines, such centerlines, street lines or highway right-of-way lines shall be construed to be such boundaries.
(2)
Where district boundaries are so indicated that they approximately follow the lot lines, such lot lines shall be construed to be the boundaries.
(3)
Where district boundaries are so indicated that they are approximately parallel to the centerlines or street lines of streets, or the centerlines or right-of-way lines of highways, such district boundaries shall be construed as being parallel thereto and at such scaled distance therefrom as indicated on the zoning map.
(4)
Where the boundary of a district line follows a railroad line, such boundary shall be deemed to be located on the easement line to which it is closest, which shall completely include or exclude the railroad easement unless otherwise designated.
(5)
As of January 1, 1986, all areas which were previously zoned C1 shall become CN; C2 zoned areas shall become OPB; C3, C4, C5 and CR zoned areas shall become CI. Any nonconformities which may result may continue to exist as per the regulations of section 122-91.
(Code 1977, § 17.06.020)
Whenever any street, alley or other public easement is vacated, the district classifications of the property to which the vacated portions of land accrue shall become the classification of the vacated land.
(Code 1977, § 17.06.030)
All new additions and annexations of land to the city shall be in an A-1 agricultural zone, unless otherwise classified by the city council, for a period of time not to exceed one year from the effective date of the ordinance annexing the addition. Within this one-year period of time, the city council shall instruct the planning commission to study and make recommendations concerning the use of land within the annexation to promote the general welfare and in accordance with the comprehensive plan, and upon receipt of such recommendations the city council shall, after public hearings as required by law, establish the district classification of the annexation; provided, however, that this shall not be construed as preventing the city council from holding public hearings prior to annexation and establishing the district classification at the time of the annexation.
(Code 1977, § 17.50.050)
