SECTION 4. INTERPRETATION OF ZONE BOUNDARIES. Where uncertainty exists with respect
to the boundaries of any of the zones in the Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply:
a) Where zone boundaries are so indicated that they approximately follow the center of streets or
highways, street lines or highway right-of-way lines, such center line, street lines or highway
lines shall be construed to be the boundaries;
b) Where zone boundaries are so indicated that they so approximately follow the lot lines, such
lot lines shall be construed to be the boundaries;
c) Where zone boundaries are so indicated that they are approximately parallel to the center lines
or street lines of streets, or the center lines or the right-of-way lines of highways, such district
boundaries shall be construed as being parallel thereto and at such distance thereforeas
indicated on the Zoning Map. If no distance is given, such dimension shall be determined by
the use of the scale of the Zoning Map;
d) Where the boundaries of a zone follows a railroad line, such boundaries shall be deemed to be
located in the middle of the main tracks of said railroad line;
e) Where the boundary of a zone follows a stream, lake or other bodies of water, said boundary
line shall be deemed to be at the limit of the political jurisdiction of the community of it be
located thereat, otherwise, the boundary shall be located at the bank or shore of the stream,
lake or river. Boundaries indicated as parallel to, or extension of features not specifically
indicated in the Zoning Map shall be determined by the scale of the Zoning Map;
f) Where a boundary line divides a lot or crosses an unsubdivided property properties, the
location of such boundary shall be as indicated in the Zoning Map, using the scale appearing
on such map.
g) Where a lot of one ownership, as of record at the effective date of this Ordinance, is divided by
the zone where the major portion of the lot is located. In case the lot is bisected by the
boundary line, it shall fall in the zone where the principal use falls;
h) Where the zone boundary is indicated as one lot deep, said depth shall be construed to be the
average lot depth of the lots involved within such particular city block. Where, however, any lot
has a depth greater than the said average, the remaining portion of said lot shall be construed
by the one-lot-deep zoning district if the remaining portion has an area less than fifty percent
(50%) of the total area of the entire lot. If the remaining portion has an area equivalent to fifty
percent (50%) or more of the total area of the lot, then the average lot depth shall apply to the
lot which shall become a lot divided and covered by two or more different zoning districts as
the case may be.
SECTION 5. INTERPRETATION OF MIXED USES IN ANY SINGLE LOT AND/OR STRUCTURE

WITHIN A ZONE. In case it appears that in any given lot or structure within a zone there is a
variety or plurality of uses to which it is devoted, the following rules of interpretation shall apply:
a) The lot and/or building shall be classified as a conforming use that complies with the
regulations of the zone in which it is located, provided that the main or principal use of the land
and/or building is consistent with the allowable uses for such zone;
b) The use of the lot and/or building shall be classified as being that to which it is principally
devoted, for which purpose, the principal use shall be determined in accordance with the
following guidelines:
1) The use which causes the most significant social, economic, and/or environmental impact,
in terms of revenue-raising capacity, population, density, resource potential, or physical

effect on the adjacent and surrounding areas, shall be considered as the principal use of
the structure, regardless of the area of the land or building that is occupied by such uses;
2) In the absence of or in the event of any difficulty in interpreting the principal use as above
provided, then the principal use shall be considered as that to which the greater portion or
area of such land or building is devoted;
3) In case the mixed uses consist of two uses of similar nature but classified under different
zones due to density differences, the higher density use shall be considered as the use of
the property; in the event any use belongs to a higher category zone with more strict
regulations, the lot/building shall be construed as being devoted to such use.
In case of any remaining doubt as to the location of any property along zone boundary lines, such properly
shall be considered as falling within the less restrictive zone.
