§ 20-3. Interpretation.

Unless district boundary lines are fixed by dimensions or otherwise clearly shown or described, and where uncertainly exists with respect to the boundaries of any of the aforesaid as shown on the zoning map, the following rules shall apply.

20-3-1 Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following or being at right angles to the center lines of streets, highways, alleys, railroad main tracks, such center line or lines shall be construed to be such boundaries, as the case may be.

20-3-2 Where a district boundary is indicated to follow a river, creek, or branch or other body of water, said boundary shall be construed to follow the center line at low water or at the limit of the jurisdiction, and in the event of change in the shoreline, such boundary shall be construed as moving with the actual shoreline.

20-3-3 If no distance, angle, curvature, description or other means is given to determine a boundary line accurately and the foregoing provisions do not apply, the same shall be determined by the use of the scale shown on said zoning map. In the case of subsequent dispute, the matter shall be referred to the board of zoning appeals which shall determine the boundary.

20-3-4 Drafting errors in this ordinance or in its accompanying map may, at any time, be corrected by a majority vote of the board of supervisors after referral to the planning commission for recommendation and joint public hearing with planning commission on any such correction.
