The boundaries of the zoning districts listed in Section 18.06.010 are shown on the official zoning map for the city.

(Ord. 357B §2.02.000, 1979)

The official zoning maps on file in the office of the city clerk shall be the final authority of the current zoning status of land, water areas, buildings and other structures within the city.

(Ord. 357B §2.02.010, 1979)

This section number is reserved for the identification of the official zoning maps and will be printed on the maps for clarification.

(Ord. 357B §2.02.020, 1979)

Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of the various districts as shown on the official zoning maps, the following rules shall apply:

(1) District boundaries are either streets or alleys unless otherwise shown, and where the designations of the map indicating the various districts are approximately bounded by street or alley lines, the street or alley shall be construed to be the boundary of such district.

(2) Where doubt exists as to the location of a district boundary in the interior of a block, the boundary shall be the nearest interior lot line existing as of the effective date of the ordinance codified in this chapter or on the date when the property may have been subsequently rezoned.

(3) If a district boundary line divides or splits a lot, the lot shall be deemed to be included within the district which is the more restrictive.

(Ord. 357B §2.03.020, 1979)
