District boundary lines as indicated on said map follow lot lines, the center lines of streets, alleys or railroads, the center lines of streets or alleys projected, the center of water courses or the corporate limit lines, all as they exist upon the effective date of the Zoning Code or amendments thereto. If district boundary lines do not follow any of the above-described lines, the district boundary lines are established as drawn on the zoning map. Where a district boundary line divides a lot of record which was in single ownership on the effective date of the Zoning Code and places portions of such lot of record in two (2) or more use districts, any portion of such lot within fifty (50) feet on either side of such a dividing district boundary line may be used for any use of either use district; provided, however, if any portion of such lot shall extend beyond the fifty (50) foot limitation, the district line as shown shall prevail. Appeals from the Zoning Administrator’s determination and questions of doubt concerning the exact location of district boundary lines shall be heard by the Board of Appeals.
