Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of any zone as shown on the zoning map, the following rules shall apply:

A. Where such boundaries are indicated as approximately following street or alley centerlines or right-of-way lines, or lot lines, such lines shall be construed to be such boundaries.

B. If the zone boundary line divides a lot into two or more zones, the entire lot shall be placed in the zone that accounts for the greater area of the lot by the adjustment of the zone boundary; provided, that the boundary adjustment is for a distance of less than 20 feet. If an adjustment of more than 20 feet is required, the change in the zone boundary shall be treated as a change of zone.

C. In the case of unsubdivided property, and where a zone boundary divides such property (except as provided in subsection (B) of this section), the location of such zone boundaries shall be determined by the use of the scale appearing on said zoning map.

D. Areas of dedicated streets or alleys and railroad rights-of-way which are not designated on the zoning map as being classified in one of the zones provided in this title shall be deemed to be unclassified and, in the case of railroad rights-of-way, shall be permitted to be used solely for the purpose of accommodating tracks, signals, other operative devices and the movement of rolling stock.
