- ZONING DISTRICTS AND ZONING ATLAS
INTENT: In order to regulate and restrict the location of agriculture, trades, industries, public and semi-public uses, residences and the location of buildings erected or altered for specific uses, the unincorporated area of Nassau County, Florida, is hereby divided into districts as shown on the zoning atlas, entitled, Zoning Atlas for Nassau County, Florida. The zoning atlas is hereby declared a part of this ordinance. Districts delineated on the zoning atlas are as follows:
(A)
Where the phrases "all residential districts", "residential districts", "zoned residentially" are used in this ordinance, the phrases shall be construed to include RS-E, RS-1, RS-2, RM, RT, RG-1, RG-2 and RMH Districts and no others.
(B)
Where the phrase "commercial districts" is used in this zoning ordinance, the phrase shall be construed to include the CN, CI, CHT, CPO, CG Districts and no others.
(C)
Where the phrase, "open use district" appears in this zoning ordinance, the phrase shall be construed to include the OR (Open Rural) district and no others.
(A)
Boundaries indicated as approximately following centerlines of streets, highways or alleys shall be construed to follow such centerlines.
(B)
Boundaries indicated as approximately following platted lot lines shall be construed as following such lot lines.
(C)
Boundaries indicated as approximately following city limits shall be construed as following such city limits.
(D)
Boundaries indicated as following railroad lines shall be construed to be midway between the main tracks.
(E)
Boundaries indicated as following shore lines shall be construed to follow such shorelines. If a change in the shorelines occur, the boundaries shall be construed as moving with the shorelines except where such moving would change the zoning status of a lot or parcel. In such case, the boundary shall be interpreted in such a manner as to avoid changing the zoning status of any lot or parcel.
(F)
Boundaries indicated as parallel to the extension of features indicated in subsections (A) through (E) hereof shall be so construed. Distances not specifically indicated on the zoning atlas shall be determined by the scale of the map.
(G)
Where a district boundary divides a lot/parcel of record which was in single ownership at the time the zoning district map was adopted, the planning and zoning board may permit, as a variance, the extension of the zoning district covering the larger portion of the lot/parcel into the remaining portion of the lot/parcel.
