3-1-050 Rules for Locating Zone Boundaries

A. Applicability. Where uncertainty exists as to the boundary of any zone shown on the Official Zoning Map, the provisions of this section shall apply to determine the location of such boundary. This section shall apply only when uncertainty exists. B. Center Lines and Property Lines. When a zone boundary is indicated as being approximately upon the center line of a street, alley or block, or along a property line, the center line of such street, alley or block or such property line shall be construed to be the boundary of such zone. C. Waterways and Public Lands. When a zone boundary is indicated as being approximately at the line of any river, irrigation canal or other waterway or public land, then the center of the stream, canal or waterway, or the boundary line of the public land shall be deemed to be the boundary of the zone. D. Street Vacations. When a public road, street, or alley is officially vacated, such property shall have the same zoning as the adjacent property. In the event vacated property is adjacent to two zones, each zone shall extend to the center line of the vacated right-of-way. E. Uncertainties. When a physical or cultural feature existing on the ground is at variance with one shown on the Official Zoning Map, or in the event any other uncertainty exists with respect to a zone boundary, the Zoning Administrator shall determine the boundary location, subject to appeal to the Planning Commission as provided in this Code. F. Action by Zoning Administrator. If application of the above rules does not clarify the location of a zone boundary, the Zoning Administrator shall determine the proper boundary subject to appeal to the Planning Commission as provided in this Code.
