a. 
In the event that any uncertainty exists with respect to the intended boundaries of the various districts as shown on the Zoning Map, (which may be found on file in the Office of the City Clerk) the following rules shall apply:
1. 
The district boundaries are the centerlines of streets, alleys, waterways and rights-of-way, unless otherwise indicated. Where designation of a boundary line on the Zoning Map coincides with the location of a street, alley, waterway or right-of-way, it shall be construed to follow the centerlines.
2. 
Where the district boundaries do not coincide with the location of streets, alleys, waterways and rights-of-way but do coincide with lot lines, such lot lines shall be construed to be the boundaries of such districts.
3. 
Where the district boundaries do not coincide with the location of streets, alleys, waterways, rights-of-way or lot lines, the district boundaries shall be determined by the use of the scale shown on the Zoning Map.
4. 
When a lot held in one (1) ownership on the effective date of this chapter is divided by a district boundary line, and where the portions of the lot in each district are too small to meet the minimum lot area for either district, the entire lot shall be construed to be within that district to be selected by the owner.
5. 
Where a district boundary line divides a lot held under a single ownership and existing on April 9, 1945, a permit may be issued allowing the extension of the building or use permitted in the less restrictive district into the lot so divided, for a distance not to exceed thirty-five (35') feet.
