Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of zones, the following rules shall apply:
A. Roads Or Lot Lines: Where any such boundary line is indicated as following a road, alley or public way, it shall be construed as following the centerline thereof.
Where a boundary line is indicated as approximately following a lot line or land survey line, such lot or land survey line shall be construed to be such boundary line.
B. Natural Features: Where the indicated boundaries are approximately canal, natural streams, watercourses, or other clearly defined natural features, the centerline of said canal, natural stream, watercourse or natural feature shall be construed to be the zone boundary.
C. Division Of Lots Or Crossing Property: Where a boundary line divides a lot or crosses property, the location of such boundary shall be indicated upon the zoning map. The zone in which a majority of the property is located shall be considered the zone for the whole property.
D. Vacation Of Street Or Road: Whenever a street or road is vacated and that street or road has not been given a zone classification, the land of the vacated street or road shall have the same zone classification as the land adjacent, or abutting land owned, or on the same side of the centerline of former street or road to whom such land reverts, or in whom said land becomes vested by operation of law or otherwise.
E. Excluded Small Parcels: In every case where small parcels of territory have not been specifically included within a zone through errors in legal description, or where territory becomes a part of the unincorporated area of the county by the disincorporation of any city, such territory shall automatically retain its existing use classification until otherwise classified but not to exceed a period of six (6) months following discovery.
F. Conflict: In case of conflict between the text and the maps of this title, the maps shall prevail. In case of a conflict between the provisions of the various sections of the text of this title, the most stringent provisions shall prevail.
G. Interpretation By Administrator: Where other uncertainty exists, the administrator shall interpret the map. (Ord. 2009-05, 9-28-2009)
