Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of the various zoning districts as shown on the zoning district map, the following rules apply:

   C.   Where a zoning district boundary line divides a lot in single ownership, the regulations of this title for either portion of such lot may, at the owner's discretion, apply to the entire area of the lot or twenty five feet (25') beyond the zoning district boundary line, whichever is the lesser distance.
   D.   Questions concerning the exact locations of district boundary lines shall be resolved by the village board of trustees. (Ord. G-60, 3-22-1966; Ord. G-99, 1-28-1969; Ord. G-391, 10-28-1986)
