Editor's Note: The Zoning Map is included as an attachment to this chapter.
Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of any of the districts established, as shown on the Zoning District Map, the following rules shall apply:
A. 
District boundary lines are intended to follow the center line of streets, alleys, and watercourses, parkway and railroad rights-of-way, or lots and parcels as they exist on plots of record at the time of the enactment of this Part 3.
B. 
Where such a district boundary line does not coincide with such center lines, right-of-way lines or lot or parcel lines, or where it is not shown by dimensions or otherwise clearly indicated, its location shall be determined by the scale of the map.
C. 
Where a boundary line dividing two or more districts divides a lot or parcel of record, the district covering the greatest portion of the frontage of such lot or parcel shall be considered as extending to the entire lot or parcel, provided that such extension shall be within 50 feet of the dividing boundary line and shall include the entire lot or parcel.
D. 
Where not resolved, the exact location of a district boundary line shall be determined by the Planning Board, as provided in Article 5.
