C.    DIVISION INTO PARTS.

The Zone Map may, for convenience, be divided into parts and each part may, for purposes of more readily identifying areas within the map, be subdivided into units and such parts and units may be separately employed for the purpose of amending the map or for official references thereto.

2.    Where a boundary line follows or coincides approximately with a lot line or a property line, it shall be construed as following the lot line or property line.

3.    Where a boundary line is not indicated as following a street or alley and does not follow or coincide approximately with a lot line or property line, the boundary line shall be determined by the dimensions designated on the zoning map.

4.    Where a boundary line follows or coincides approximately with the City boundary, it shall be construed as following the City boundary.

5.    Where further uncertainty exists, the Planning Commission, upon written application or on its own motion, shall determine the location on a boundary line, giving due consideration to the location indicated on the Zone Map and the objectives and purposes of the Zoning Ordinance.
