§ 173-9 District boundaries.
A.
The boundaries between these districts are, unless otherwise indicated, either the center lines of streets, alleys, rights-of-way, lot lines, or such lines extended, or lines parallel thereto.
B.
Where figures are shown on the Zoning Map between a street, alley, right-of-way or lot line and a district boundary line, such figures indicate that the district boundary line runs parallel to that line at a distance therefrom equivalent to the number of feet so indicated.
C.
Where district boundaries are not clearly fixed by the above methods, such boundaries shall be determined by the use of the scale of the Zoning Map.
D.
Should any other uncertainty exist, the Zoning Hearing Board shall interpret the intent of this chapter and the Zoning Map as to the exact location of district boundaries.
E.
When a district boundary line divides a lot held in single and separate ownership at the effective date of this chapter, the regulations of either abutting district may be construed by the owner to be applicable to the portion of such lot in the other abutting district for a distance of not more than 50 feet beyond the district boundary line.
