This chapter identifies and establishes base zoning districts and the overlay zones. (Ord. 253, 12-16-2014)

   A.   General: The town is divided into zoning districts to allow for the orderly development of the town and to implement the general plan. Table 2-1 of this section identifies all zones. All zones shall be listed and appropriately designated on the official zoning map.

   B.   Base District: Every parcel shall have a base zone that establishes the primary type and intensity of land use permitted, along with development regulations for that particular type and intensity of land use. The base zoning districts are described in chapters 9.07 through 9.13 of this article 2.

   C.   Overlay District: An overlay zoning district supplements the base zone for the purpose of establishing special use or development regulations for a particular area in addition to the provisions of the underlying base zone. In the event of conflict between the base zone regulations and the overlay zone regulations, the provisions of the overlay zone shall apply. The overlay zoning districts are described in chapters 9.15 through 9.23 of this article 2.

   TABLE 2-2

   OVERLAY ZONING DISTRICTS

 

The official zoning map, together with the legend, symbols, notations, references, district boundaries and other information thereon, shall be a part of the development code and shall be adopted concurrently with the development code. Changes, additions, and amendments to the zoning map shall be adopted by ordinance and shall be processed, considered, and adopted in compliance with chapter 9.62, "Amendments To Development Code And Zone Changes", of this title. The official zoning map shall be kept on file with the town clerk and shall constitute the original record. (Ord. 253, 12-16-2014)

Where a public street or alley is officially vacated or abandoned, the property encompassed by said street or alley shall be included within the zone or zones of the adjoining properties. If the adjoining properties are in different zones, the boundary lines shall be the centerline of the former street or alley and the extension of the side yard lines of the abutting properties. In the event such street, alley, or right of way was a boundary between two (2) or more different zones, the new zone or zone boundary shall be the property line that is created by such vacation. (Ord. 253, 12-16-2014)

   A.   If there is uncertainty about the location of a zone boundary shown on the official zoning map, the director shall determine the location of the boundary in the following manner, except as provided in section 9.05.050, "Rights Of Way And Vacated Boundary Lines", of this chapter.

      1.   Where a zone or area boundary approximately follows a lot line, street or alley line, the lot line, street centerline, or alley centerline shall be construed as the zone boundary;

      2.   Where a zone or area boundary divides a lot and the boundary line location is not specified by distances indicated on the subject map, the location of the boundary shall be determined by using the scale appearing on the map;

      3.   Where a public street or alley is officially vacated or abandoned, the regulations applicable to the property to which it reverts shall apply to the vacated or abandoned street or alley.

   B.   If the director determines that the above rules do not resolve uncertainty about a boundary location, the commission shall determine the location of the boundary. (Ord. 253, 12-16-2014)
