The location and boundaries of the zoning districts named and listed in chapter 4 of this ordinance are hereby established as shown on a map entitled "Zoning Map of the City of Stanton," as amended from time to time. The map and all amendments thereto are made a part of this ordinance.

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

Boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of roads, streets or alleys shall be construed to follow such centerlines.

b)

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

c)

Boundaries described as following the shoreline of lakes, rivers, creeks, or lake, creek or river beds, shall be construed as following such shoreline or bed. In the event of natural change of a shoreline, such boundaries shall be construed as moving with such shoreline.

d)

Boundaries indicated as approximately following property lines, section lines, or other lines of the government survey, shall be construed as following such property lines as of the effective date of this ordinance or amendment thereto.

e)

In any case where boundary lines cannot be determined by application of these rules, such boundaries shall be determined by the zoning board of appeals whose decision shall be final except that such decision may be appealed to the circuit court.

If, by error, omission, annexation or other reason, any land has not been specifically included within a zoning district, such land shall be included in the R-1 Single-Family Residential Zoning District.
