The titles of the districts have been created to be as informational as possible. For example, in the case of the R1-20 District, the "R" refers to Residence, the "1" refers to one-family, and the "20" refers to the minimum required lot area of 20,000 square feet. In multifamily residence districts, the maximum permitted floor area ratio (FAR) is the descriptive term used to indicate the differing characteristics among districts. For example in the case of the RMF-0.4 District, the "RMF" refers to multifamily residence and the "0.4" represents the floor area ratio regulation which is used to control the density of development. The numbering following the Planned Waterfront Development District name refers to the height of the structure in stories.
For nonresidence districts the classifications reflect the character of existing development, such as Downtown Mixed-Use (DMU) and the Downtown Mixed Use Urban Renewal (DMUR) District.
[Amended 12-11-2007 by Ord. No. 294-2007]
The boundaries of all districts are hereby established as shown on a map entitled "Zoning Map, City of New Rochelle, New York," dated May 19, 2005, as it may be amended from time to time with ordinance numbers and ordinance adoption dates shown on such Map, which Map accompanies and, with all explanatory matter thereon, is made part of this chapter. The official copy of this Map shall be kept by the Building Official and amendments thereto shall be reviewed for accuracy by the Building Official, with copies made available to the public by the City Clerk. Whenever the City Council amends the Zoning Map, the City Clerk shall notify the Building Official, who shall cause the amendment to be made to the official Zoning Map.
District boundary lines follow lot lines, streets, municipal boundaries, rights-of-way, railroad rights-of-way or watercourses, or are parallel or perpendicular thereto, unless such district boundary lines are fixed by dimensions, as shown on the Zoning Map.
Where district boundaries are shown approximately following streets, rights-of-way, railroad rights-of-way or watercourses, the center lines thereof shall be such boundaries.
Where district boundaries are shown approximately following municipal boundaries or lot lines, such municipal boundaries or lot lines shall be the district boundaries.
Where district boundary lines divide a lot, the location of any such boundary, if not indicated by dimensions, shall be determined by use of the map scale appearing thereon.
If the district classification of any property is in question, it shall be deemed to be in the most restrictive adjoining district.
In all cases where a district boundary is located not farther than 15 feet from a lot line of record, the boundary shall be construed to coincide with such line. In all other cases, where not dimensioned, the location of boundaries shown on the map shall be determined by the use of the scale appearing thereon.
Where zoning districts are referred to as more restrictive or less restrictive, the designations shall refer to the order in which the districts are named in § 331-5, the first named being the most restrictive.
Where a lot in one ownership of record is divided by one or more district boundary lines, the following shall apply:
Uses permitted in one district may not extend into another district where they would not otherwise be permitted.
Dimensional requirements shall be measured from the lot lines and not zoning district lines.
