§ 475-2.10 Adoption of Zoning Map.
A.
The boundaries of the Zoning Districts listed in this chapter are hereby established as shown on the Official Zoning Map of Village of Vicksburg. The Zoning Map with all notations, references, and other information shown thereon shall be, and is hereby declared to be a part of this chapter as if fully described herein.
B.
In accordance with the provisions of this chapter and Michigan Public Act 110 of 2006, as amended, changes made in district boundaries and other matters portrayed on the Zoning Map shall be entered on the Zoning Map after the amendment has been approved by the Village Council and has been published in a newspaper of general circulation in the Village. The Village Council may also decide to publish the amendment digitally on the Village's website. No changes of any nature shall be made to the Zoning Map except in conformity with the procedures set forth in this chapter.
C.
Regardless of the existence of copies of the Zoning Map which may, from time to time, be made or published, the official Zoning Map shall be located at the Village Hall and shall be the final authority with regard to the current zoning status of all land in the Village.
§ 475-2.11 Interpretation of district boundaries.
The following rules shall apply to the interpretation of zoning district boundaries:
A.
Boundaries indicated as approximately following the center lines of streets, roads, railroad rights-of-way, or alleys shall be construed to follow such center line.
B.
Boundaries indicated as approximately following platted lot lines shall be construed as following such lot lines.
C.
Boundaries indicated as approximately following Village limits shall be construed as following such limits.
D.
Boundaries indicated as approximately following the center lines of streams, rivers, or other bodies of water shall be construed to follow such center lines.
E.
Boundaries indicated as approximately following the shoreline of a body of water shall be construed to follow such shoreline; in the event of a change in the shoreline, the boundary shall be construed as moving with the actual shoreline.
F.
Where there is any uncertainty, contradiction, or conflict concerning the intended location of zoning district boundaries, the Zoning Board of Appeals shall interpret the exact location of zoning district boundaries.
G.
Insofar as some or all the various districts may be indicated on the zoning map by patterns that, for the sake of map clarity, do not cover public rights-of-way, it is intended that such district boundaries do extend to the center of the rights-of-way.
§ 475-2.12 Zoning of vacated areas.
Whenever any street, alley, or other public way within the Village is vacated, such street, alley, or other public way shall be automatically classified in the same Zoning District as the property to which it attaches, and shall be subject to the requirements for said Zoning District.
§ 475-2.13 Zoning of filled land.
Whenever any fill is permitted in any stream or other body of water, the land created automatically and without further governmental action becomes subject to the same zoning regulations that are applicable to the land to which the newly created land attaches.
