This chapter shall be administered and enforced by an agent
to be appointed by the Board of Township Commissioners, who shall
be known as the Zoning Officer. The Zoning Officer shall meet qualifications
established by the Township and shall be able to demonstrate to the
satisfaction of the Township a working knowledge of municipal zoning.
It shall be the duty of the Zoning Officer to receive and maintain
a record of all applications for permits and a record of all permits
issued, with notation of all special conditions involved. He shall
file copies of all plans submitted and the same shall form a part
of the records of his office and shall be available for the use of
the Zoning Hearing Board, the Board of Commissioners, other Township
officials and staff, and Township residents. Such records are and
shall remain the property of the Township.
The boundaries of the districts enumerated by §
350-21 are hereby established on the Zoning Map of South Whitehall Township. Such map accompanies and is hereby declared to be a part of this chapter. Where uncertainty exists as to the precise location of the boundaries shown on said Zoning Map, the following rules shall apply:
(a) District boundary lines.
(1)
District boundary lines generally follow the centerline of streets
and streams, and lot lines as they exist on plans of record at the
time of the adoption of this chapter. Where a district boundary divides
a lot, the location of said boundary, unless the same is indicated
by dimensions, shall be determined by the use of the scale appearing
on the Map.
(2)
Where a district boundary is not fixed by dimensions and where
it approximately follows a lot line, and where it does not scale more
than 20 feet therefrom, such lot lines shall be construed to be such
boundaries.
(3)
In case any further uncertainty exists, the Zoning Officer shall
interpret the intent of the map as to location of district boundaries
within the Township.
