In accordance with the municipality's Master Plan, and with consideration of the character of the municipality and its various parts, and the suitability of the various parts for particular uses and structures, the Borough of Taylor is hereby divided into 15 zoning districts, differentiated according to permitted uses and building regulations, as follows:

In addition to the 15 zoning districts listed above, the Borough also has a Floodplain (FP) Conservation District. Where applicable on the Zoning Map, this zone appears as an overlay to the districts established above. Permitted uses and building regulations in this zone are subject to the same requirements as the zone over which this overlay is placed, and the supplemental regulations governing the floodplain as described in § 180-33I.

Designation of zone boundaries. The zone boundary lines are intended to follow the right-of-way lines of streets and roads, existing lot and property lines, the mean and/or flood level of water bodies and Borough boundary lines, all as shown on the Zoning Map; but where a zone boundary line does not follow such a line, its location is shown on the Zoning Map by a specific dimension expressing its distance from a street or road line, or other boundary line as indicated, or by a reference to a contour line delineated on the United States Geological Survey Maps.

Determination of locations of boundaries. In the event of uncertainty as to the true location of a zone boundary line in a particular instance, any decision of the Zoning Officer may be appealed before the Zoning Hearing Board by any affected property owner. It shall be the duty of the Zoning Hearing Board to render its determination with respect thereto.

Division of lot or parcel in single ownership. Where a zone boundary line divides a lot or parcel in single ownership at the time of the passage of this chapter, any use authorized or permitted in either zone may be extended a distance not to exceed 50 feet beyond the boundary of the zone in which such use is authorized or permitted.

Those uses permitted in an S-1 Zone are most restrictive.

All other uses are less restrictive in the order they are permitted in the zones in the sequence shown: R-1A, R-1, R-2, R-3, C-1, C-2, C-2A, C-3, C-3A, S-2, M-1, M-2, M-2A and S-3.

Where a use is specifically enumerated in a less restrictive zone, such use shall not be permitted in a more restrictive zone unless it is specifically enumerated as a permitted use therein.
