The location and boundaries of the above districts are hereby established on the Zoning Map of the City of Summit in Union County, dated October 3, 2020, as amended, which is filed in the office of the City Clerk. Said map or maps and all notations, references and designations shown thereon shall be part of this article as if the same were all fully described and set forth herein. A copy of the Zoning Map is located in the Appendix of this chapter.[1]
[1]
Editor's Note: The Zoning Map is included as an attachment to this chapter.
Whenever an uncertainty or ambiguity exists as to the true location of any boundary line of any zone shown on the Zoning Map of the City of Summit, the following rules shall apply:
A. 
The zone boundary lines are intended generally to follow street center lines, existing lot lines, center lines of railroad right-of-way, waterways, and sewer and utility easements, or as otherwise indicated on the Zoning Map, or as otherwise specifically described in this chapter. Where a zone boundary line does not coincide with any such line as above set forth, its location or relation to another boundary line shall be as designated on the Zoning Map by special notation. In cases of uncertainty or disagreement as to the true location of any zone boundary line, the determination thereof shall be with the Zoning Board of Adjustment, which shall hear and decide all questions of interpretation of the Zoning Map in the same manner and under the same procedures, including notice and public hearing, as applicable in cases of other hearings within the jurisdiction of the Zoning Board.
B. 
In the event that a zone boundary line divides one or more lots, the zone boundary line shall be considered the lot limit for computing all area, bulk, yard buffer and any other dimension requirements specified in this article.
C. 
Zone boundary lines extend vertically in both directions from ground level.
D. 
Where a street or public way serves as the zone boundary line and it is lawfully vacated, the former center line shall be considered the zone boundary line.
