Zoning district boundary lines established by this title generally follow lot lines, the centerlines of railroad rights- of-way, street rights-of-way, watercourses or the corporate limit lines, all as they exist upon the effective date of this title.
A. Appeals concerning the exact location of a zoning district boundary line shall be heard by the Board of Adjustment and Appeals pursuant to chapter 7 of this title.
B. Whenever any street, alley or other public way is vacated by official action of the City, the zoning district adjoining each side of such street, alley or public way shall be automatically extended to the center of such vacation, and all area included in the vacation shall then and henceforth be subject to all appropriate regulations of the extended districts.
C. All streets, alleys, public ways and railroad rights-of-way, if not otherwise specifically designated, shall be deemed to be in the same zone as the property in the most restrictive classification immediately abutting upon such alleys, streets, public ways or railroad rights-of-way. Where the centerline of a street, alley, public way or railroad right-of-way serves as a district boundary, the zoning of such areas, unless otherwise specifically designated, shall be deemed to be the same as that of the abutting property up to such centerline.
D. All areas within the corporate limits of the City which are underwater and which are not shown as included within any zone shall be subject to all regulations of the zone which immediately adjoins such water area. If such water area adjoins two (2) or more zones, the boundaries of each zone shall be construed to be extended into the water area in a straight line until they meet the other district at the halfway point and/or to the corporate limits.
