§ 27-219. Interpretation of zoning district boundaries.

Interpretations regarding boundaries of zoning districts shall be made in accordance with the following rules, provided that the result of such application is not inconsistent with the comprehensive plan:

(1)

Boundaries shown as following or approximately following any street or alley shall be construed as following the centerline of the street or alley.

(2)

Boundaries shown as following or approximately following any platted lot line or other property line shall be construed as following such line.

(3)

Boundaries shown as following or approximately following natural features shall be construed as following such features.

(4)

Boundaries indicated as following city limits shall be construed as following such city limits.

(5)

Distances not specifically indicated shall be determined by the scale of the map.

(6)

Where any street or alley is officially vacated or abandoned, the regulations applicable to each parcel of abutting property shall apply to that portion of such street or alley added thereto by virtue of such vacation or abandonment.

(7)

In cases where any further uncertainty exists, the community development board shall consider the intent of the zoning map as to location of such boundaries, and provide the city council with its recommendation; however the city council shall make the final interpretation.
