Chapter 17.08 — ZONING DISTRICTS DESIGNATED

For the purpose of this title as stated in Chapter 17.02, the city is divided into the following zones:

(Prior code § 014.01)

(Ord. No. 1204, § 3(Exh. A.1), 7-26-23)

The areas assigned to these zones, their designations, and the boundaries of said zones shown on the map hereto attached and made part of this chapter, are hereby established. Said map being designated as the "Official Zoning Map" and such map and its proper notations, references, and other information shown thereon shall be as much a part of this chapter as if the matters and information set forth by such map were fully described in this chapter.

(Prior code § 014.02)

Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of any zone shown on the official zoning map, the following rules shall apply:

A.

Where zone boundaries are indicated a approximately following street lines, alley lines, or lot lines, such lines shall be construed to be such boundaries.

B.

In the case of unsubdivided property, or where the zone boundary divides a lot, the location of such boundary unless the same are indicated by dimension, shall be determined by use of the scale appearing on said zoning map.

C.

Where any public street or alley is officially vacated or abandoned, the area comprising such vacated street or alley shall acquire the zone classification of the property to which it reverts.

(Prior code § 014.03)

A.

Where a number follows the zoning symbol on any zoning map hereafter adopted, the following interpretations shall govern the minimum permitted lot area:

1.

Where the number is less than one hundred (100), it shall designate an area in acres;

2.

Where the number is greater than one hundred (100), it shall designate an area in square feet;

3.

In no case shall an area zoning symbol be established which would reduce the minimum lot area below that required in the zone itself.

B.

The addition or deletion of such numbers to zoning symbols shall be deemed a change of zone, and shall be accomplished in accord with all provisions of Chapters 17.70 through 17.82.

C.

Where no number follows the zoning symbol, the minimum building site shall be that prescribed by the designated zone.

(Prior code § 014.04)

(Prior code § 014.05)
