A. Where uncertainty exists concerning the boundaries of any zoning district shown on the Official Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply:
1. Where zoning district boundaries are indicated as approximately following street or alley center lines, such center lines shall be construed to be the district boundary.
2. Where zoning district boundaries are so indicated that they approximately follow property lines, such property lines shall be construed to be the district boundary.
3. Where zoning district boundaries divide a lot or parcel, the zoning boundary shall be determined by using the scale of the Official Zoning Map, unless indicated by legal description with distance and bearing or other dimension. Such zoning district boundary shall be considered a "lot line" as defined herein. If the area created by such lot line does not comply with the designated district lot area and lot width requirements, zoning for the entire parcel shall be that which is applied to the largest portion of the property.
4. Where a public street or alley, railroad, or utility right-of- way is officially vacated or abandoned, the property that was formerly in the right-of-way will be included within the zoning district of the adjoining property on either side of the centerline of the vacated or abandoned right-of-way or easement.
5. Where a zoning district boundary divides a lot or parcel, the location of such boundary, unless indicated by legal description with distance and bearing or other dimension, shall be determined by scaling the Official Zoning Map by the City Zoning Administrator.
6. Where a lack of clarity or disagreement concerning the exact location of a zoning district line exists, determination shall lie with the interpretation of the City Zoning Administrator as defined under section 21-5-5 of this chapter. The determination of the Zoning Administrator may be appealed in accordance with the provisions of section 21-6-2.11, "Appeals", of this chapter. (Ord. 18-880, 7-23-2018)
