Where uncertainty exists as to any boundary shown on the Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply for guiding the Planning Board in cases before it requiring interpretation of the Zoning Map:
A.
Zone boundaries are intended to follow streams, contact lines between geologic formation and the property lines of lots as they exist at the time of passage of this chapter, unless fixed by dimensions shown on the map.
B.
Where such boundaries are not fixed by dimensions and where they approximately follow lot lines and where they do not scale more than 10 feet distant therefrom, such lot lines shall be construed to be the actual zone boundaries.
C.
In undivided land and where a zone boundary divides a lot, the location of the boundary shall be determined by the use of the scale appearing in the Zoning Map, unless the location is shown by dimensions displayed on the map or is drawn between corners of a lot or lots.
§ 150-8 Bulk standards for lots and buildings.
[Amended 10-2-1975]
The standards of zoning for lot sizes applicable within a given zone or district, along with other factors relating to yards, etc., are presented in the Schedule of Limitations and Zoning Standards and made a part of the regulations of this chapter.[1]
