§ 25-7. Same—Interpretation of boundaries; classification of annexed territory, vacated streets, etc.  


Latest version.
  • When definite distances in feet are not shown on the zoning district map, the district boundaries are intended to be along existing street, alley or platted lot lines or extensions of such lines. If the exact location of such lines is not clear, it shall be determined by the zoning administrator, due consideration being given to location as indicated by the scale of the zoning district map.

    When streets or alleys on the ground differ from the streets or alleys as shown on the zoning district map, the zoning administrator shall apply the district designations on the map to the streets or alleys on the ground in such manner as to conform to the intent and purpose of this chapter.

    Whenever any street or alley is vacated, the particular district in which the adjacent property lies shall be automatically extended to the centerline of any such street or alley.

    All areas which may hereafter be annexed to the city shall first be tentatively zoned by the city council, following study and recommendations by the planning and zoning commission, such tentative zoning shall take effect upon the effective date of the annexation.
