The time in which an act is required or permitted to be done pursuant to this UDC shall be computed as follows, unless otherwise stated in this UDC or an adopted City regulation or manual.
A. Where performance is permitted or required within a stated number of days, the computation of the deadline or required date shall exclude the first day or the period and include the last day of the period.
B. If a deadline or required date of action falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday observed by the City, the deadline or required date of action shall be the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or a holiday observed by the City. (Ord. 23-03)
A. All public officials, bodies, and agencies to which references are made are those of the City of Colorado Springs, unless otherwise expressly stated.
B. Whenever reference is made to a resolution, ordinance, statute, regulation, or document, it shall be to the most recent edition of such regulation, resolution, ordinance, statute, regulation, or document, unless otherwise specifically stated.
C. Whenever a provision of this UDC requires the head of a department or another officer or employee of the City to perform an act or duty, that provision shall be construed as authorizing the department head or officer to delegate that responsibility to others over whom they have authority. The person to whom authority under this UDC has been delegated is sometimes referred to as a "designee."
D. Whenever a provision of this UDC identifies an individual or entity associated with an application or with property, that provision shall be construed as including any legally authorized agents or assigns of that individual, but the Manager may require proof of such legal authorization before authorizing any agent or assign to take actions related to any application or property for which they are not the property owner. (Ord. 23-03)
Unless the context clearly suggests the contrary, conjunctions shall be interpreted as follows:
A. "And" indicates that all connected items, conditions, provisions, or events apply; and
B. "Or" indicates that one (1) or more of the connected items, conditions, provisions, or events apply. (Ord. 23-03)
Zone district boundaries on the Official UDC Map shall be interpreted as follows:
A. Unless otherwise indicated, the zone district boundaries are the centerline of streets, alleys, waterways, or railroad rights-of-way. Where street, alley, or other rights-of-way lie adjacent to each other, the zone boundary is the imaginary line bisecting the combined width of the adjacent rights-of-way or such line extended. The area within any of the rights-of-way is not granted any of the use rights associated with the overlaying zone district.
B. Where no rights-of-way exist and the zone boundaries are indicated as approximately following lot or block lines, such lines shall be considered as district boundaries.
C. In unsubdivided property or where a boundary divides a property, boundaries on the Official UDC Map shall be determined by use of the scale indicated on such maps unless otherwise dimensioned.
D. Whenever a public street, alley, or other right-of-way has been vacated, the zone district adjoining each side of the right-of-way shall be extended to the former centerline. The regulations associated with the zone district shall apply to the area of vacation.
E. Should an actual street layout or stream course vary from that shown on the map or any other uncertainty remain as to the location of a zone district boundary on the zoning map of the City of Colorado Springs, the map shall be interpreted in accord with Section 7.5.529 (Interpretation of UDC). (Ord. 23-03)
