SECTION 3
ESTABLISHMENT OF DISTRICTS
3.1 Districts.
3.2 Zoning Map.
The districts listed in Section 3.1 are as shown, defined, and bounded on the map accompanying this By-law, entitled "Zoning Map of the Town of Southbridge, Assessors Maps (152 sheets), South bridge, Mass., revised to January 1, 1974, John E. O'Donnell and Associates, Auburn, Maine," as hereafter amended from time to time by the Town Council. The Zoning Map and all explanatory matter are hereby made a part of this By-law.
3.3 Boundaries of Districts.
A.
District boundaries are as shown upon the Zoning Map.
B.
Where the boundary lines are shown approximately on the location of property or lot lines and the exact location of property, lot, or boundary lines is not indicated by means of dimensions shown in figures, then the property or lot lines shall be the boundary lines.
C.
Where a boundary is indicated upon a street, the line shall be the centerline of the street.
D.
Where a boundary is indicated approximately parallel to a street, it shall be taken as parallel thereto, and if there is any variance between the scaled distance between the boundaries and the side line of the street and the distance as marked in feet upon the map, the latter shall govern.
E.
Where a boundary is indicated otherwise than above, it is determined by its location on the Zoning Map.
F.
Where a district boundary line divides a lot existing as of the effective date of this By-law, the district in which the lot frontage is located shall determine the use regulations that apply to the entire lot, but the portion of the lot located in the less restrictive district shall conform to the dimensional regulations of that district.
