D. Rules For Interpretation Of Zoning District Boundaries: The following presumptions shall apply in determining boundaries of a district as shown on the Official Zoning Map:
1. Where a boundary follows a public street, the centerline of the street shall be the boundary. When there are two (2) or more adjacent streets, the centerline of the street with the higher classification shall be the boundary (e.g., use centerline of highway instead of frontage road).
2. Where a boundary follows a lot line, the lot line shall be the boundary.
3. Where a property is split by a boundary, the boundary shall be determined by the context of the situation when possible, which methods may include, for example: review of the legal description of a former rezone ordinance, the extension of an adjacent property line, the presence of a physical feature such as a canal or stream, a line between two (2) known points, and an elevation contour. When the context is not sufficiently clear to determine the precise location of the district boundary, the boundary shall be determined by scaling the location from the zoning map.
4. Where a public right-of-way is officially vacated or abandoned, the boundary shall automatically be shifted, if necessary, to follow the new property boundary, which is typically, but not always, the former centerline of the vacated right-of-way. (Ord. 2017-02, 3-7-2017)
