It is understood that the map approved and adopted pursuant to § 69-1 of this chapter was prepared and is intended to be used as evidence in prosecution arising under the criminal laws of this state and that, pursuant to state law, such map shall constitute prima facie evidence of the following:
The location of elementary and secondary schools and public parks and/or public buildings within Evesham Township.
The boundaries of the real property of public parks and/or public buildings and real property owned by or leased to a school or a school board.

The failure of the map approved herein to depict the location and boundaries of any property which is, in fact, used for school purposes and which is owned by or leased to any elementary or secondary school or school board, or public park or public building, whether the absence of such depiction is the result of inadvertent omission or the result of any changes in the location and boundaries of such property which have not yet been incorporated into a revised approved map, shall not be deemed to be an official finding and record that such property is not owned by or leased to a school or school board, that such property is not used for school purposes or that such property is not a public park and/or building.
