[R.O. 2006 §405.060; Ord. No. 503A, 7-17-2000]
A.
Zoning Map. Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of the various districts as shown on the Zoning District Map, the following rules shall apply:
1.
Where a boundary line is given a position within a street, alley or non-navigable stream, it shall be deemed to be in the center of the street, alley or stream, and if the actual location of such street, alley or stream varies slightly from the location as shown on the District Map, then the actual location shall control.
2.
Where a boundary line is shown as being located a specific distance from a street line or other physical feature, this distance shall control.
3.
Where a boundary line is shown adjoining or coincident with a railroad, it shall be deemed to be in the center of the railroad right-of-way and distances measured from a railroad shall be measured from the center of the designated main line track.
4.
Where the district boundaries are not otherwise indicated and where the property has been or may hereafter be divided into blocks and lots, such boundaries shall be construed to be the lot lines and where the districts are bounded approximately by lot lines, said lot lines shall be construed to be the boundary of such districts unless said boundaries are otherwise indicated on the map.
5.
In unsubdivided property, unless otherwise indicated, the district boundary line shall be determined by the use of the scale contained on such map.
B.
Unlisted Uses. Any use not shown as a use permitted by right, as a conditional use or expressly permitted only as a planned development in a zoning district is specifically prohibited in that district. Uses not listed have been determined either not to be appropriate in any district, incompatible with certain existing uses, or sufficiently rare or unexpected as to be incapable of being listed at the time of adoption of this Chapter. Any use not shown as a use permitted by right, a conditional use or a planned use in any zoning district, but constituting a use that is required to be permitted by law, shall be authorized only in the industrial districts subject to the following conditions:
1.
The use shall be permitted only to the extent required by law to be permitted.
2.
The use shall be approved only as a planned development, except if by law it is required to be permitted by right.
3.
The use shall be located no closer than one thousand (1,000) feet from any residence, residential property, park, school or church, except as may be modified by the Board of Aldermen through a planned development procedure.
4.
The use shall maintain a distance of a minimum of one thousand (1,000) feet from any other lot having the same or similar type use.
5.
No use shall occupy a structure in excess of five thousand (5,000) square feet without an approved parking plan designed for that use and supported by a traffic study submitted to and approved by the Board of Aldermen.
