1 Such map shall be on permanent file and available for public inspection in City Hall. It shall be the
<br /> 2 responsibility of the zoning administrator to maintain and keep the map up to date and to revise or
<br /> 3 update the map with each amendment thereto within 30 days after official publication of the
<br /> 4 ordinance adopting the amendment.
<br /> 5 (B) District and development area boundaries shown within the lines of roads, streams, and
<br /> 6 transportation rights-of-way shall be deemed to follow the centerlines. The vacation of roads shall
<br /> 7 not affect the location of such district or development area boundaries. When the zoning
<br /> 8 administrator cannot definitely determine the location of a district or development area boundary
<br /> 9 by such centerlines, by the scale or dimensions stated on the zoning map, or by the fact that it
<br /> 10 clearly coincides with a property line, the zoning administrator shall interpret the location of the
<br /> 11 district or development area boundary with reference to the scale of the zoning map and the
<br /> 12 purposes set forth in all relevant provisions of this Code. When a district or development area
<br /> 13 boundary line divides a lot of record into two or more districts or into both development areas,any
<br /> 14 portion of the lot within 50 feet of such division may be used for any use of either district or
<br /> 15 development area as approved by the Planning Commission or as appealed by the City Council.The
<br /> 16 Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) boundary line as shown in the Comprehensive Plan,
<br /> 17 however, defines the limits of sewered areas.Any area outside of the MUSA boundary shall not be
<br /> 18 served with sewer.

<br /> 31 140 Non-Conformities
<br /> 32 intent. It is the purpose of this section to provide for the regulation of nonconforming buildings,
<br /> 33 structures, site improvements, and uses and to specify those requirements, circumstances, and
<br /> 34 conditions under which nonconforming buildings, structures, and uses will be operated and
<br /> 35 maintained.This chapter establishes separate districts,each of which is an appropriate area for the
<br /> 36 location of uses that are allowed in that district. It is necessary and consistent with the
<br /> 37 establishment of these districts that nonconforming buildings, structures, site improvements, and
<br /> 38 uses not be allowed to continue without restriction. Furthermore, it is the intent of this section that
<br /> 39 all nonconforming uses shall be eventually brought into conformity or terminated.
<br /> 40 (B) Regulations.
<br /> 41 (1) Whenever a lawful nonconforming use of a structure or land or occupancy is discontinued for
<br /> 42 a continuous period of one year, any future use of said structure or lands shall be made to
<br /> 43 conform with the provisions of this chapter.
<br /> 44 (2) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter,any nonconformity,including the lawful
<br /> 45 use or occupation of land or premises existing at the time of the adoption of an additional
<br /> 46 control under this chapter, may be continued, including through repair, replacement,
<br /> 47 restoration, maintenance, or improvement, but not including expansion, unless it is a
<br /> 48 nonconforming use that is destroyed by fire or other peril to the extent of greater than 50
<br /> 49 percent of its market value, and no building permit has been applied for within 180 days of
