Chapter 9 — Zoning and Overlay Districts, Article 2 — INTERPRETATION OF DISTRICT BOUNDARIES
Property Lines.
Where boundaries are indicated as approximately following property lines or such lines extended, such property lines or such lines extended, as indicated by boundary survey, deed, or legal description maintained in the official file of said zoning adoption or amendment, if available, or if not available such survey, deed, or legal description for such property in question recorded in the official records of the Clerk of Superior Court, Forsyth County, shall be construed to be such boundaries.
Street Centerlines.
Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streets or highways, the actual centerlines shall be construed to be the boundaries. In cases where the centerline of a street or highway is a zoning district boundary and such street or highway is abandoned or vacated, the regulations applicable to the property to which it reverted shall apply to such vacated or abandoned street or highway.
Government Lines.
Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following the county line, or the corporate limits line of any incorporated place, of the militia district line of any militia district, of the land lot line of any land lot, the actual county line, corporate limits line, militia district line or land lot line shall be construed to be such boundaries.
Lines Parallel to Street Centerlines.
Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately parallel to the center line of streets or highways, such district boundaries, unless specifically indicated, shall be construed as being actually parallel thereto and at a distance of 150, 300, 500 or 1,000 feet from the center line of such streets and highways, each above district boundary being shown at scale on the aforementioned map or maps.
Stream or River Centerlines.
Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following the centerline of streambeds or riverbeds, such actual centerline shall be construed to be such boundaries.
Director Determination.
In the case where the exact location of a boundary cannot be determined by the foregoing methods, the director shall make such a determination which may be appealed to the Zoning Board of Appeals in accordance with procedures and requirements for appeals as specified by this Code.
