Zoning district boundary lines shall be construed to coincide with the center lines of a man-made street, alley, parkway, railroad or other right-of-way or such lines as may be extended therefrom.
(b) 
Where a zoning district boundary line depicted on the Zoning Map appears to coincide with the line of a man-made street, alley, parkway, railroad or other right-of-way, the center line of such man-made street, alley, parkway, railroad or other right-of-way shall be construed to be the boundary of such zoning district.
(c) 
Where a zoning district boundary line depicted on the Zoning Map appears to coincide with a natural shoreline or waterline of a bay, lake, pond or other such feature, such lines shall be construed to be the boundary of such zoning district.
(d) 
Where a zoning district boundary line depicted on the Zoning Map appears to coincide with a platted lot line, such platted line shall be construed to be the boundary of such zoning district.

Any zoning district boundary line not conforming with the foregoing Subsection B(3)(a) through (d) shall be determined by the use of the scale shown on the Zoning Map.
