The location and boundaries of the districts established by this chapter are set forth in the Official Zoning Map, dated July 10, 1995, and as amended, which is incorporated herein and hereby made a part of this chapter. The Official Zoning Map shall consist of a one inch equals 1,000 feet scale map of the Town of Barton, Wisconsin. This map, together with everything shown thereon, and all amendments thereto, shall be as much a part of this chapter as though fully set forth and described herein.[1]
[1]
Editor's Note: The Official Zoning Map is on file at the office of the Town Clerk.
When uncertainty exists with respect to boundaries of the various districts shown on the Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply:
A. 
General location of zoning district boundaries.
(1) 
Zoning boundary determination. The zoning district boundaries are streets, alleys, railroads, lot lines, and streams, unless otherwise shown.
(2) 
Zoning boundary determination for approximate boundaries. Where the designation of the Official Zoning Map indicates that various zoning districts are approximately bounded by a street, alley, railroad, lot line, or stream, such lot line or the center line of such street, alley, or railroad right-of-way, or center line of the main channel of such stream, shall be construed to be the zoning district boundary line.[1]

Editor's Note: Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. II).
(3) 
Split zoning of newly created lots not allowed. The split zoning of any newly created lot or parcel into more than one zoning district shall not be allowed.
B. 
Zoning district boundary lines on unsubdivided property. In unsubdivided property, the location of the zoning district boundary lines shown on the Official Zoning Map shall be determined by the use of the scale on such map or shall be in accordance with the dimensions shown on the map measured at right angles from the center line of the street or highway, and the length of frontage shall be in accordance with dimensions shown on the map from section, quarter-section, or division lines, or center lines of streets, highways, or railroad rights-of-way, unless otherwise indicated.
All streets, alleys, public ways, waterways, and railroad rights-of-way, if not otherwise specifically designated, shall be deemed to be in the same zone as the property immediately abutting upon such alleys, streets, public ways, waterways, and railroad rights-of-way. Where the center line of a street, alley, public way, waterway, or railroad right-of-way serves as a district boundary, the zoning of such areas, unless otherwise specifically designated, shall be deemed to be the same as that of the abutting property up to such center line.
Any additions to the Town of Barton, resulting from disconnections from incorporated areas in Washington County, shall be automatically classified in the GA General Agricultural District until otherwise classified by amendment.
