§ 510-3 Zone districts.

For the purpose of this chapter, the City is hereby divided into districts which shall be designated as follows:
S Slope District
R-MT Residential District (Multifamily Town)
C-C Commercial District (Central Commercial)
M-L Manufacturing District (Limited)

§ 510-4 Zoning Map.

The boundaries of the districts shall be as shown upon the map attached to and made a part of this chapter, which shall be designated "Zoning Map." This Map and all notations, references and other data shown thereon are hereby incorporated by reference into this chapter as if all were fully described herein.

§ 510-5 Boundaries between districts.

A. 
The boundaries between districts are, unless otherwise indicated, either the center lines of streets, alleys, railroad rights-of-way, lot lines or such lines extended, or lines parallel thereto.
B. 
Where district boundaries approximate the location of the above lines, they shall be construed to be on those lines.
C. 
Where figures are shown on the Zoning Map between a street, alley, railroad, right-of-way or lot line and a district boundary line, they indicate that the district boundary line runs parallel to that line at a distance therefrom equivalent to the number of feet so indicated.

§ 510-6 Interpretation of boundaries.

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.
