(A) Identified. The zoning districts as provided in § 151.040 are bounded and defined as shown on the map entitled Zoning District Map of the Village of Manchester. The Zoning District Map, along with all notations, references, and other explanatory information, shall accompany and be made a part of this chapter.
(B) Authority. Regardless of the existence of purported copies of the Zoning District Map which may be published, a true and current copy of the Zoning District Map available for public inspection shall be located in and maintained by the office of the Village Clerk. The Clerk's copy shall be the final authority as to the current status of any land, parcel, lot, district, use, building, or structure in the village.
(C) Interpretation of district boundaries. Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of any of the districts indicated on the Zoning District Map, the following rules shall apply.
(1) A boundary indicated as approximately following the centerline of a highway, alley, or easement shall be construed as following the centerline.
(2) A boundary indicated approximately following a recorded lot line or the line bounding a parcel shall be construed as following the line.
(3) A boundary indicated as approximately following a municipal boundary line shall be construed as following the line.
(4) A boundary indicated as following a railroad line shall be construed as being located midway in the right-of-way.
(5) A boundary indicated as following a shoreline shall be construed as following the shoreline, and in the event of change in the shoreline shall be construed as following the shoreline existing at the time the interpretation is made.
(6) The boundary indicated as following the centerline of a stream or river, canal, lake, or other body of water shall be construed as following the centerline.
(7) A distance not specifically indicated on the Official Zoning Map shall be determined by the scale of the map.
(8) Where an existing physical feature is at variance with that shown on the Official Zoning Map or any other circumstances not covered by divisions (C)(1) through (C)(7) above, the Zoning Board of Appeals shall interpret the location of the zoning district boundary.
