(a) It is the intent of this Ordinance that all questions of interpretation and enforcement shall be first presented to the Zoning Inspector and that such questions shall be presented to the Board only on appeal from the decision of the Zoning Inspector. Recourse from the decisions of the Board shall be to the courts as provided by law.
(b) It is further the intent of this Ordinance that the duties of the City Council, in connection with this Ordinance, shall not include hearing and deciding questions of interpretation and enforcement that may arise. The procedure for deciding such questions shall be as stated in this Section and this Ordinance.

(d) Interpretation of District Map.
Where the street or lot layout, actually on the ground or as recorded, differs from the street line and lot lines as shown on the Official Zoning Map, the Zoning Board of Appeals, may interpret the map in such a way as to carry out the intent and purpose of the Zoning Ordinance. In case of any questions as to the location of any boundary line between zoning districts, a request for interpretation of the Official Zoning Map may be made to the Board and a determination shall be made by the Board.
(e) Board May Reverse or Affirm Orders.
In exercising its power, the Zoning Board of Appeals may, in conformity with the provisions of statute and the Zoning Ordinance, reverse or affirm wholly or partly or may modify the order, requirements, decision, or determination as ought to be made and to that end, shall have all powers of the officer from whom the appeal is taken.
