WHEREAS, such maps have been updated over the past thirteen (13)
years by hand drafting; and
WHEREAS, such maps have become difficult to interpret because of
the nature and number of changes and additions; and
WHEREAS, such maps were drawn upon base maps that were
fundamentally flawed due to inaccurate section and
quarter-section boundary dimensions and new base maps
have subsequently been created which are based upon
modern land surveying and accurate monumentation
methods.

WHEAT RIDGE, LOCATED WITHIN TOWNSHIP THREE (3), RANGE SIXTY NINE

new Official Zoning Map. Such new Official Zoning Map is hereby
adopted by reference and is located within the office of the
Wheat Ridge City Clerk. Such new Official Zoning Map consists of
forty six (46) quarter section maps drawn at a scale of one (1)
inch equals four hundred (400) feet.
Section 2. It is the intent of City Council that such
replacement map shall supersede the prior official zoning map and
shall correct drafting or other base map errors or omissions in
the prior official map. No such correction shall have the effect
of rezoning any individual parcel of property, the intent being
that zoning upon individual parcels of property shall remain as
established by the last legislative or quasi-judicial enactment
of the Wheat Ridge City Council as applicable to each such
individual parcel.

proposed replacement Official Zoning Map shall be made available
