§ 215-6 Interpretation of district boundaries. [1]
District boundary lines are intended to follow streets, rights-of-way, watercourses or lot lines or to be parallel or perpendicular thereto, unless such district boundary lines are fixed by dimensions as shown on the Zoning Map.
Where a district boundary divides a lot, the location of any such boundary, unless the same is indicated by dimensions shown on said map, shall be determined by the use of the map scale shown thereon.
Where district boundaries are indicated as following approximately streets, rights-of-way, bodies of water or watercourses, the center lines thereof shall be construed to be such boundaries.
If the district classification of any land is in question, it shall be deemed to be in the most restrictive adjoining district.
