(B) Application of regulations to districts generally. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter:
(1) No building or part thereof or other structure shall be erected, altered, added to or enlarged, nor shall any land, building, structure or premises be used for any purpose or in any manner other than is included among the uses hereinafter listed as permitted in the district in which such building, land or premises is located.
(2) No building or part thereof or structure shall be erected, reconstructed or structurally altered to exceed in height the limit hereinafter designated for the district in which such building is located.
(3) No building or part thereof or structure shall be erected, nor shall any existing building be altered, enlarged or rebuilt or moved into any district, nor shall any open space be encroached upon or reduced in any manner, except in conformity with the yard, setback, building location, site area and coverage requirements hereinafter prescribed with the district in which such building or open space is located.
(4) No yard or other open space provided about any building or on any building lot for the purpose of complying with the provisions of this chapter shall be considered as providing a yard or other open space for any other building or any other building lot.
(5) The requirements of an overlay district shall apply to those areas of the underlying zoning district that are located in an overlay district.
(C) Zoning map.
(1) The location and boundaries of zones designated in this section are hereby established as shown on the map entitled “Zoning Map of the City of Tillamook”, dated with the effective date of this chapter, and reflect revised Flood Hazard Overlay Zones as designated by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Administration and signed by the Mayor and City Recorder, and hereinafter referred to as the “Zoning Map”.
(2) The signed copy of said zoning map shall be the “official map” of the city zoning districts and maintained on file in the office of the Recorder and is hereby made part of this chapter. Any revisions or replacements of said map, when duly entered, signed and filed with the City Recorder, as authorized by this section, are part of this chapter.
(3) When the zoning of any area is changed by the City Council in the manner prescribed by this chapter, the City Manager shall cause the official zoning map to be revised so that it accurately portrays said change, provided that failure to so revise the said map shall not affect the validity of any zone change. The City Council may, from time to time, direct the City Manager to replace the official zoning map, or a portion thereof, with a map, which includes all lawful changes of zone and city boundaries to date. Such map, or portion thereof, filed as a replacement, shall bear the number of the ordinance authorizing same and shall bear dated, authenticating signatures of the Mayor and City Recorder. Any map or portion thereof thereby replaced shall be retained in a separate file by the City Recorder.
(D) Interpretation of district boundaries. In making a determination where uncertainty exists as to boundaries of any of the aforesaid districts as shown on said zoning map, the following rules shall apply.
(1) District boundaries shall follow the outside boundaries of streets, alleys or highways.
(2) Whenever any street, alley or other public way is vacated in the manner authorized by law, the zoning district adjoining each side of such street, alley or public way shall be automatically extended to the center of the former right-of-way and all of the area included in the vacation shall then and henceforth be subject to all regulation of the extended districts.
(3) Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following property lines, such property lines at the date of adoption of this chapter shall be construed to be said boundaries. If a district boundary divides a platted lot into two or more districts, the entire lot shall be placed in the district that accounts for the greater area of the lot by the adjustment of the district boundary; provided that the boundary adjustment is for a distance of less than 20 feet. If an adjustment of more than 20 feet is required, the change in the district boundary shall be treated as a change of zone.
(E) Zoning of annexed areas. City zoning regulations and zoning districts shall apply to all of the area within the city urban growth boundary.
