A. Rules For Determining Boundaries: In cases where the exact location of the district boundary is not clear as shown on the official zoning map, the following rules shall be used in determining the location of said district boundary:
1. Boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streets or highways shall be construed to follow such centerlines.
2. Boundaries indicated as approximately following platted lot lines shall be construed as following such lot lines.
3. Boundaries indicated as approximately following City limits shall be construed as following City limits.
4. Boundaries indicated as following railroad lines shall be construed to be midway between the main tracks.
5. Boundaries indicated as following shorelines shall be construed to follow such shorelines and, in the event of change in the shoreline, shall be construed as moving with the actual shoreline; boundaries as approximately following centerlines of streams, creeks, lakes or other bodies of water shall be construed to follow such centerlines.
6. Boundaries indicated as parallel to or extensions of features indicated in subsections A1 through A5 of this section shall be so construed. The scale of the map shall determine distances not specifically indicated on the official zoning map.
7. Where physical features existing on the ground are at variance with those shown on the official zoning map, or in other circumstances not covered by subsections A1 through A6 of this section, the Community Development Director shall interpret the district boundaries.
B. Street Vacations: Vacation of public streets shall cause the land vacated to automatically be placed in the same district as the abutting side. Any land annexed to the City after the effective date hereof shall be zoned R-1 Residential until rezoned in accordance with this title and the comprehensive plan. Within six (6) months of the annexation of any land into the City, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall study that area annexed and recommend to the City Council a zoning and land use plan for the area.
