17.200.010 Purpose.

The purpose of this chapter is to identify the maps which are incorporated into the Lewis County development regulations which delineate zoning districts. Where a conflict exists between the map and the text, the text shall prevail. The zoning districts may be refined from time to time by adoption of amendments (rezones) to the zoning map, in accordance with this text and Chapters 36.70 and 36.70A RCW and Chapter 1.05 LCC. Regardless of copies, the official zoning map shall be located in the board of county commissioners (BOCC) office. The community development department shall be the final authority as to the current boundaries of the zoning districts. [Ord. 1269 §43, 2016; Ord. 1223 §1 (Exh. A), 2011; Ord. 1179, 2002; Ord. 1170B, 2000]

17.200.020 Interpretation and conflict between zoning boundaries.

In interpreting and applying the provisions of this title, they shall be held to be the minimum requirements for development. In the event that uncertainty is deemed to exist on the official Lewis County zoning map, zoning district boundaries shall be on section lines; lot lines; the center lines of highways, streets, alleys, railroad rights-of-way or such lines extended; municipal corporation lines; natural boundary lines, such as streams and topography; the ordinary high water mark (OHWM) of lakes and streams subject to shoreline management program jurisdiction; or other lines to be determined by the use of scales shown on said map. Where a zoning district line purposely divides a land parcel, such parcel shall be subject to the procedures and requirements of the respective districts as applied. In the event that districts are overlaid by shoreline management program designation(s), the most restrictive regulations of either the shoreline management program or the official Lewis County zoning ordinance shall apply. [Ord. 1269 §43, 2016]
