  • (A)

    The official zoning map of the town is hereby divided into zones or districts as shown on the official zoning map which, together with all explanatory matter thereon, is hereby adopted by reference and declared to be a part of this chapter. The official zoning map shall be identified by the signature of the mayor, attested by the town clerk, and bearing the seal of the town under the following words: This is to certify that this is the Official Zoning Map referred to in Ordinance 2014-22 of the Town of Longboat Key, Florida.

    (B)

    The district boundary lines are intended generally to follow the centerlines of waterways and streets, existing lot lines, or municipal boundary lines, as shown on the zoning map; but where a district boundary line does not follow such a line, its position is shown on the zoning map by a specific dimension expressing its distance in feet from a street centerline or other boundary line as indicated. In case of uncertainty as to the true location of a district boundary line in particular instance, the planning and zoning official shall request the board of adjustment to render its determination with respect thereto; provided however, no boundary shall be changed by the board of adjustment.

    (C)

    Where an addition, alteration or reconstruction of a building or the construction or erection of a fence, wall, parking area, or other structure is undertaken after the issuance of a building permit and upon completion is in accordance with all provisions of this chapter; and where a certificate of occupancy is not applicable, a statement of zoning compliance shall be issued in the same manner as a certificate of occupancy at a fee to be established by resolution of the town commission.
