(1) The district boundary lines shown on the Zoning Map are usually along streets, alleys, property lines, or extensions thereof; where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of districts as shown on the official Zoning Map, the following rules apply.
(a) Boundaries indicated as approximately following the center lines of streets, highways, or alleys shall be construed to follow such center lines.

(e) Boundaries indicated as parallel to or extensions of features indicated in divisions (C)(1)(a) and (C)(1)(b) above shall be so construed. Distances not specifically indicated on the original Zoning Map shall be determined by the scale of the map.
(f) Whenever any street, alley, or other public way is vacated by official action of the Town Board or whichever such area is franchised for building purposes, the zoning district adjoining each side of such street, alley, or other public way shall be automatically extended to the centerline of such vacated street, alley, or way, and all area so involved shall then and henceforth be subject to all regulations of the extended districts.
(2) Where physical features on the ground are at variance with information shown on the official Zoning District Map or when there arises a question as to how or whether a parcel of property is zoned and such questions cannot be resolved by the application of divisions (C)(1)(a) through (C)(1)(f) above, the property shall be considered as classified A-1, General Agricultural District, temporarily, in the same manner as provided for newly annexed territory, and the issuance of a building permit and the determination of permanent zoning shall be in accordance with the provisions providing for amendments to the Zoning Ordinance and Map.
(Prior Code, § 18-21)
