surrounding areas shall be considered as the principal use of the structure,
regardless of the area of the land or building that is occupied by such use;
in the absence of or in the event of any difficulty in interpreting the
principal use as above provided, then the principal use shall be considered
as that to which the greater portion or area of such land or building is
devoted;

classified under different zones due to density differences, the higher
density use shall be considered as the use of the property; in the event any
use belongs to a higher category zone with more strict regulations; the lot,
building shall be construed as being devoted to such use.
