(a) The zoning district locations and boundaries are those that exist on the legally adopted official zoning map, a copy of which is attached hereto, and made a part of this Zoning Code. The original zoning map shall be kept on file in the office of the Township Secretary. Whenever changes are made in the boundaries or other matter included on said zoning map, such changes on the map shall be made within five days after the amendment has been approved by the Township Board of Commissioners.
(b) The boundaries between districts shall follow natural or human-made boundaries and lines. Unless otherwise indicated, boundaries shall be the centerline or extension of the centerline of a street, alley, or highway; railroad rights-of-way; streams; or other natural or human-made features which can form logical boundaries to districts.
(c) Where a district boundary line divides a lot held in single and separate ownership at the effective date of this Zoning Code, the regulations of the less restricted district shall extend over the portion of the lot in the more restricted district a distance of not more than 50 feet from the district boundary.
(d) Boundaries indicated as appearing to follow platted lot lines shall be construed as following such lot lines. Distances not specifically indicated on the official zoning map shall be determined by the scale of the map. In any other circumstances not covered above or in the event of any uncertainty as to the boundary of any district, the Zoning Hearing Board shall interpret the district boundaries.
