§ 3.5. Interpretations of district boundaries.  


Latest version.
  • Where uncertainty exists with respect to the location of the boundaries of any zoning district in Riverdale, Georgia, the following rules shall apply:

    1.

    Where a zoning district boundary line is shown as approximately following a corporate limits line, a militia district line, a land lot line or the center line of a street, a county road, a state highway, right-of-way or such lines extended, then such lines shall be construed to be the zoning distract boundary lines.

    2.

    Where a zoning district boundary line is shown as being set back from a street, a county road, a state highway, right-of-way, and approximately parallel thereto, then such zoning district boundary line shall be construed as being at the scaled distance from the center line of the street, county road, state highway, interstate highway or railroad right-of-way and as being parallel thereto.

    3.

    Where a zoning district boundary line divides a lot, the location of the line shall be the scaled distance from the lot lines.

    4.

    In the case of a double frontage lot fronting on two approximately parallel streets that is divided by a zoning district boundary line paralleling the streets, the restrictions of the zoning district in which each frontage of the double frontage lot lies shall apply to that portion of the double frontage lot.

    5.

    Where zoning district boundaries are in doubt, the Riverdale board of zoning appeals shall determine boundaries using the appropriate scale from the official zoning map.
