(a) The following rules shall apply to the interpretation of district and zone boundaries on the Zoning Map:
(1) Boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streets, highways, or alleys shall be construed to follow such centerlines;
(2) Boundaries indicated as approximately following platted lot lines shall be construed as following such lot lines;
(3) Boundaries indicated as approximately following City limits shall be construed as following such City limits;
(4) Boundaries indicated as following railroad lines shall be construed to be midway between the main tracks;
(5) Boundaries indicated as following shorelines shall be construed as moving with the actual shoreline; boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streams, rivers, canals, lakes, or other bodies of water shall be construed to follow such centerlines; and
(6) Boundaries indicated as parallel to or extensions of features listed above shall be so construed. Distances not specifically indicated on the Zoning Map shall be determined by the scale of the map.
(b) Lots Divided by District Boundaries. Where a district boundary line divides a lot that was in single ownership at the time of passage of this Code, the Planning Commission may permit the extension of the regulations for either portion of the lot beyond the district line into the remaining portion of the lot.
