The Village of Schoolcraft is hereby divided into the following districts:

The areas and boundaries of such districts noted in section 62-41 are hereby established to scale as shown on a map entitled, Zoning Map of the Village of Schoolcraft, and referred to herein as the "zoning map". Said zoning map, together with everything shown thereon, is hereby adopted by reference and declared to be a part of the Ordinance.

Regardless of the existence of copies of the zoning map which may be made or published, the official zoning map shall be located at the Village Hall and shall be the final authority as to the current zoning status in the village. No amendment to this chapter which involves a change of a mapped zoning district, shall become effective until such change an entry has been made on the official zoning map. The official zoning map shall be identified by the signature of the president, and attested by the village clerk.

When uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of districts as shown on the zoning map, the following rules shall apply:

(1)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following the center lines of streets, highways, or alleys shall be construed to follow such center lines.

(2)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following platted lot lines shall be construed to follow such lot lines.

(3)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following village boundaries shall be construed to follow village boundaries.

(4)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following property lines, section lines or other lines of a survey shall be construed to follow such chartered lines as of the effective date of this chapter, or affecting amendment.

(5)

Boundaries indicated as following railroads lines shall be construed to follow centerline of the railroad right-of-way.

(6)

Boundaries indicated as parallel to or extensions of features indicated in subsections (1) through (6) above, the building inspector shall interpret the district boundaries. Upon appeal, the zoning board of appeals reserves the right to over-ride the interpretation of the building inspector.

(Ord. No. 216, § 3, 12-15-2008)

When property not now in the village shall become annexed to the village, the property shall be incorporated with RA zoning and shall be retained as RA for a period of one year or until the planning commission recommends an alternate zoning district to the village council and the village acts upon the recommendation.
