General provisions
298 rules that bind every district rather than one — sign regulations, parking, floodplain and the rest of the code’s citywide chapters.
In case of annexation to the City, or in case property comes into the territorial jurisdiction of the City other than by annexation, the regulations applying to the R-12, Residential District, shall apply to all such annexed or new territory pending an amendment of this chapter.
Whenever any dedicated street, alley, or other public right-of-way is vacated by the City Council, the zoning district boundaries adjoining each side of such street, alley, or public right-of-way shall automatically be extended to the centerline of the vacated right-of-way.
All water areas, waterways, alleys, roads, streets, highways, railroads, and other rights-of-way, if not otherwise specifically designated, shall be deemed to be in the same zoning district as that of the immediately abutting property.
Where a lot in single ownership is divided by one (1) or more district boundary lines, each portion of the lot shall be subject to all the regulations applicable to the district in which it is located.
No construction may commence, no use may be established or changed, and no structure shall be constructed, erected, altered, moved, or demolished unless and until all permits required by Article 5 of this chapter have been issued.
