Unofficial copy. It may be out of date. Not legal or zoning advice. Zoning rules change, and only the city or county can say for sure what is allowed on a property. Confirm with the city or county planning department before you buy, sign or build.

Chapter 10 is a scanned image on the town's site and is not included; chapter 19 is a placeholder and chapter 23 was repealed.
Tables (like use tables) may not copy cleanly, so check any table against the official code.
Confirm anything here with Leeds planning before you rely on it.
Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of a district as shown on the Town of Leeds maps, the following shall apply:
12.4.1. Boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerline of streets, highways, or alleys shall be construed to follow such centerlines and in the event of change in centerline shall be construed as moving with the centerline.
12.4.2. Boundaries indicated as approximately following the right-of-way lines of streets, highways, or alleys shall be construed to follow such right-of-way lines, and in the event of a change in the right-of-way line shall be construed as moving with the right-of way line.
12.4.3. Boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerline of streams, rivers, canals, or other bodies of water, or flood control channels, shall be construed to follow such centerline and in the event of change of the centerline shall be construed as moving with the centerline.
12.4.4. Boundaries that run along the lower or upper portions of hillsides with a slope of over thirty (30), which is approximately seventeen (17) degrees will start/end with portion of the hillside that is less than the slope of thirty (30). That portion between the lower and upper portion of the hillside that has a slope greater than thirty (30) is considered non-buildable as defined in the Hillside Protection Overlay Zone Ordinance and as such is generally zoned as Open Space, or may utilize the zoning of the upper or lower portion of the hillside. This non-buildable portion of the zoning map is shown as an approximate location. In order to identify the exact starting and ending point of this area an engineering/surveying effort to find the exact location based on the slope of the hillside will be necessary. This survey will be the responsibility of the property owner.
12.4.5. Boundaries indicated as approximately following platted lot lines shall be construed to follow such lot lines.
12.4.6. Boundaries indicated as parallel to or extensions of features indicated in sub-section 1 through 5 above shall be so construed. Distances not specifically indicated on the official map shall be determined by the scale of the map.
12.4.7. In case any further uncertainty exists, the Leeds Board of Adjustments shall determine the location of such boundaries.
12.4.8. Boundaries for each of the said zones are hereby established as described herein or as shown on the map entitled Town of Leeds Zoning Map (see Appendix 1), which map is on file in the Leeds Town Hall and all boundaries shown thereon are made by reference as much a part of this Ordinance as is fully described and detailed herein.
