Editor's Note: The Use Summary Chart and the
Zoning Dimensions Chart are included at the end of this chapter.
[Amended 11-4-2021 by Ord. No. 954, approved 11-4-2021]
The boundaries of zoning districts shall be
as shown on the official Zoning Map and made part of this chapter.
This map shall be known as "The Zoning Map of the Borough of Shippensburg."
The map and all notations, references and data shown thereon are hereby
incorporated by reference into this chapter.[1]
[1]
Editor's Note: Said Zoning Map is on file
in the Borough offices.
The boundaries between zoning districts are,
unless otherwise indicated, either the center lines of streets, railroad
rights-of-way or other such lines extended or approximately parallel
or perpendicular thereto. Where figures are shown on the Zoning Map
between a street and a district boundary line, they indicate that
the district boundary line runs parallel to the street line at a distance
equivalent to the number of feet so indicated. In instances where
a district boundary line is a property line, the distances shown will
be those measured from the property line to the nearest identifiable
landmark, such as a street, railroad, etc., at each end of the property
line. In these cases, the boundary line is coincidental with the property
line existing at the time this chapter is adopted. In case of uncertainty
as to the true location of a district boundary line, the Zoning Officer
shall make the initial determination thereof. Such determination shall
be appealable to the Zoning Hearing Board.
Where a district boundary line divides a single
lot that was in single and separate ownership at the effective date
of this chapter, the use regulations applicable to the more restrictive
district shall apply to the lot.
