The Official Zoning Map shall bear the signature of the Mayor, attested by the Clerk, under the certification that it is the Official Zoning Map. If, in accordance with the provisions of the Zoning Code and Chapter 414, of the Code of Iowa, changes are made in district boundaries or other matters portrayed on the Official Zoning Map, copies of such changes shall be filed with the Official Zoning Map promptly after the amendment has been approved by the Council. The Council may, from time to time, adopt a new Official Zoning Map which shall supersede the prior Official Zoning Map, in the event that the Official Zoning Map becomes damaged or destroyed; or for purposes of clarity due to a number of boundary changes, or to correct drafting errors or omissions; provided, however, any such adoption shall not have the effect of amending the original zoning ordinance or any subsequent amendment thereof. The Official Zoning Map, together with amending ordinances, shall be the final authority as to the current zoning status of land and water areas, buildings, and other structures in the City. (See Editor’s Note at end of this chapter for ordinances amending Zoning Map.)
