(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
The districts established in Section 1131.01 are shown on the Official Zoning Map of the City of Elyria which, together with all explanatory matter therein, is hereby adopted as part of this Zoning Code and is hereby incorporated by reference into this Zoning Code. The Official Zoning Map, properly attested, shall remain on file in the office of the Building Inspector or his or her designee and a copy maintained in the office of the Clerk of Council. The Official Zoning Map shall be amended automatically by any zoning changes made under Chapter 1133.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
Except where referenced on the Zoning Map to a street, alley line or other designated line by dimensions shown on the map, the district boundary lines shall follow lot lines or the center lines of streets or alleys as they existed at the time of adoption of this Code. However, where a district line obviously does not coincide with the lot lines as such, or center lines of streets or alleys, or where it is not designated by dimensions, it shall be determined by the use of the engineer's scale as measured on the Official Zoning Map.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
Where a district boundary line established in this chapter, or as shown on the Zoning Map, divides a lot which was in single ownership at the time of enactment of this Code, the use authorized thereon and the other district requirements applying to the least restricted portion of such lot under this Code shall be considered as extending to the entire lot; provided the more restricted portion of such lot is entirely within twenty-five (25) feet of such dividing district boundary line.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
All questions concerning the exact location of district boundary lines, shall be determined by the Building Inspector with appeals of his or her decision to the Board of Zoning Appeals, according to rules and regulations which may be adopted by it.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
Whenever any street, alley, or other public way is vacated by official action as provided by law, the zoning district adjoining the side of such public way shall be extended automatically, depending on the side or sides to which such lands revert, to include the right-of-way thus vacated, which shall thenceforth be subject to all regulations of the extended district.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
