(a) Zoning Map. The boundaries of the districts enumerated in Section 13-1-40 above are hereby established as shown on a map entitled "Zoning Map, Village of Edgar, Marathon County, Wisconsin", as amended, which is adopted by reference and made a part hereof. The map shall bear upon its face the attestation of the Village President and the Village Administrator and shall be available to the public in the office of the Village Administrator.
(b) Boundary Lines. The boundaries shall be construed to follow corporate limits; U.S. Public Land Survey lines; lot or property lines; center lines of streets, highways, alleys, easements and railroad rights-of-way; or such lines extended unless otherwise noted on the Zoning Map. Where the district boundaries are not otherwise indicated and where the property has been or may hereafter be divided into blocks and lots, the district boundaries shall be construed to be lot lines and where the designations on the Zoning Map are approximately bounded by lot lines, such lot line shall be construed to be the boundary of the district.
(c) Vacation. Vacation of public streets and alleys shall cause the land vacated to be automatically placed in the same district as the abutting side to which the vacated land reverts.
(d) Annexations and Consolidations. Annexations to or consolidations with the Village of Edgar subsequent to the effective date of this Chapter shall be placed in the R-1 Residential District unless the annexation ordinance temporarily placed the land in another district.
(e) Rules for Interpretation of Zoning District Boundaries.
(1) Generally. Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of districts as shown on the Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply:
a. Boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streets, highways or alleys shall be construed to follow such centerlines.
b. Boundaries indicated as approximately following platted lot lines shall be construed as following such lot lines.
c. Where district boundaries are so depicted that they approximately follow section lines, quarter section lines or other government survey lines; or that they approximately follow political subdivision lines such as county lines, town lines or corporate limits; such government survey lines or political subdivision lines shall be construed to be said boundaries.
d. Boundaries indicated as following railroad lines shall be construed to be midway between the main tracks.
e. 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 indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streams, rivers, canals, lakes or other bodies of water shall be construed to follow such centerlines.
f. Boundaries indicated as parallel to or extensions of features indicated in the preceding shall be so construed. Distances not specifically indicated on the zoning map shall be determined by the scale of the map.
g. Where a district boundary line, as appearing on the zoning map, divided a lot in single ownership at the time of original enactment of this Zoning Code, the district requirements for the least restricted portion of such lot shall be deemed to apply to the whole thereof, provided that such extension shall not include any part of such lot more than thirty-five (35) feet beyond the district boundary lines.
(2) Exceptions. As an exception to the District Boundary interpretation, in Subsection (e) above, the A-1 Exclusive Agricultural District shall include all lands within the corporate limits of the Village that are not otherwise assigned to a specific zoning district or dedicated as the right-of-way of a public road, street or alley. Also where not defined by the above interpretation of district boundary lines and limits, the extent of the C-1 Conservancy District may be construed to be the Floodplain or Shoreland of a navigable body of water, or a thirty (30) foot wide strip of land along either side of the centerline of a natural, non-navigable waterway or drainageway.
