sectional map sheets shall be determined by the boundaries as shown and outlines thereon and, when not clearly so determined, by use of the scale shown on said maps unless actual dimensions are noted. Where uncertainty exists as to the exact location of said boundaries, the following rules shall apply: (a) Center line as boundaries. Where district boundaries lie on or within streets, highways, road rights-of-way or public water, the district boundaries shall be the center line of the same. (b) District boundaries which bisect blocks. Where district boundary lines approximately bisect blocks, the boundaries are the median lines of such blocks between the center line of boundary streets. (c) District boundaries parallel to rights-of-way. Where district boundaries are approximately parallel to a street, highway, road, alley, railroad right-of-way public water, the distance of such boundaries from the center line thereof shall be, unless otherwise shown by dimension, the median block line. (d) District boundaries of lots adjacent to bodies of water. Where district boundaries are adjacent to bodies of water, the following criteria shall be applied: 1. For lots bordering or containing lakes or other bodies of water, such lakes and bodies of water will be included in the lot size determination. 2. Submerged bottomlands of the Indian River and St. Sebastian River will not be included in the lot size determination, but the density of the Conservation - 2 district of one unit per acre, transferable to the contiguous upland portion of the lot not to exceed 150% of the total number of units permitted on the receiving site by the land use designation, will be applied to planned developments (PDs). (e) District boundaries dividing parcels of land. In unplatted property or where a district boundary divides an unplatted lot, the location of such boundary, unless the same is indicated by dimensions, shall be determined by the use of a scale appearing on the district map. Where a district boundary divides a platted lot, the zone classification of the greater portion shall prevail throughout the lot. (f) Action in case of uncertainty. In case any further uncertainty exists, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall interpret the intent of the district map as to location of such boundaries. (g) Street and right-of-way abandonments. Where a public road, street, alley or other right-of-way is officially 157
