A. 
Districts. The Zoning Map of the Incorporated Village of Northport shall reflect those zoning districts set forth in § 306-7 hereof.
B. 
Existing Zoning Map. The Zoning Map of the Incorporated Village of Northport, in effect on the date of adoption of this provision, is hereby made a part of the Zoning Chapter of the Code of the Village of Northport. Said map has been amended simultaneously herewith to reflect the elimination of the Residence E District and changing the zoning of properties previously zoned as Residence E District to Residence C District or Residence D District as shown on the Zoning Map. For the purpose of identification, those lots previously zoned Residence E on Stanton Street encompassing Section 6, Block 2, Lots 73 through 80, will now be zoned Residence D and those lots previously zoned Residence E on Scudder Avenue encompassing Section 9, Block 2, Lots 54 through 63, will now be zoned Residence D. In all other respects, said Zoning Map remains unchanged. All prior ordinances, local laws and amendments thereto describing the limits of zoning districts shall, unless changed as described above or unless further amended, control the location of zoning district boundaries under this chapter.
C. 
Map amended. The premises known on the Suffolk County Tax Map as District 0404, Section 10, Block 1, Lot 34.001, including old filed Lot Numbers Part of 1 (sharing a common boundary with land now or formerly of Paul Malik and Colette Malik), Part of 2, 3, 4, and 5, on the map known as "Annex and Alteration Map of Highland Park," filed in the office of the Suffolk County Clerk on July 18, 1896, are rezoned from D Residence to A Business, on the condition that said old file lots Part of 1 (sharing a common boundary with land now or formerly of Paul Malik and Colette Malik), 3, 4, and 5, are restricted in development and use to parking lots, parking structures, parking decks, refuse containers, utility cabinets and/or backup generators, landscaping and drainage structures in connection with any building or buildings on lots Part of 2 and Part of 1 (with frontage on both Main Street and Woodside Avenue) and otherwise in accord with the Map as revised.
[Added 8-22-2017 by L.L. No. 3-2017]
To resolve uncertainty as to the location of district boundary lines or the depth of any district shown on the Zoning Map, the following rules apply:
A. 
Where the ordinance establishing or amending the boundary lines of any district contains a metes and bounds description, the location thereof according to such description is controlling.
B. 
Where district boundary lines are shown upon the map within or contiguous to lines of streets, the center lines of such streets are the boundary lines.
C. 
Where district boundary lines are shown without and approximately parallel to lines of streets and where figures are shown between district boundary lines and lines of such streets, the district boundary lines are parallel to lines of such streets and are distant therefrom, as measured at right angles to lines of such streets, the indicated number of feet.
D. 
Where district boundary lines are shown not contiguous to lines of streets but approximately contiguous to property or lot lines, and where the exact locations of such boundary lines are not otherwise indicated, the property or lot lines are the boundary lines.
E. 
Where districts border upon any body of water, district boundary lines are deemed to project into the body of water the shortest of the following distances:
(1) 
To the limit of Village jurisdiction.
(2) 
To a point of intersection with a boundary line of another district.
(3) 
Midway to an opposite and different use district.
F. 
Where application of the foregoing rules does not certainly locate a district boundary, the distances shown on said map pertinent to the subject line or the scale of the map as applied thereto is determinative.
G. 
Where a district boundary line cannot be ascertained by application of the foregoing rules, the matter is to be decided by the Board of Trustees of the Village.
