Zoning Map

The boundaries of the zoning districts described in § 185-6 are hereby established on a map entitled "Barrington Zoning Map," filed at the office of the Town Clerk, with a true and accurate copy to be maintained in the office of the Building Official, and shown on a set of reproductions of the Barrington Assessor's Plats numbered one to 37. Said map is hereby adopted as part of this chapter. The scales of the various zoning plat sheets are as shown on the individual plats contained in said set. In interpreting these zoning plat maps, the following criteria shall be applied:

• A. Zoning district lines which are located within the boundary of a street, right-of-way, railroad, stream or water body shall be interpreted as following the center line of said feature.
• B. Zoning district lines which are located along shorelines shall be construed as following the mean high tide water mark, and where any alteration of the shoreline, either natural or artificial, is made, the zoning district line shall be interpreted as relocating to the new shoreline location.
• C. Where a zoning district line is located approximately parallel to, in extension of or following a lot line or other mapped feature, it shall be so construed.
• D. Where a lot or parcel of land is divided by a zoning district boundary, the regulations for either district may be applied for a maximum of 50 feet into the other district, following the granting of a special use permit pursuant to the provisions of Article XIV.
• E. Distances not specified on the Zoning Map shall be determined by use of the scale indicated on the zoning plat sheet.
• F. Where clarification of any feature of the Zoning Map is required, the interpretation of the Building Official shall govern, subject to the right of appeal as provided in § 185-58.

Editor's Note: A copy of the Zoning Map is included at the end of this chapter.
