A nonconforming use may be extended throughout any parts of
a building which were manifestly arranged or designed for such use
at the time of adoption of this chapter. A nonconforming use may not
be changed to another nonconforming use.
Nothing in this chapter shall be deemed to prevent the strengthening
or restoring to a safe condition of any structure declared unsafe
by a qualified public official.
A nonconforming structure or use may not be altered, rebuilt
or resumed except in conformity with the regulations for the district
in which it is located if:
A. It has once been changed to a conforming use.
B. A nonconforming use of a structure or land has ceased for a consecutive
period of 12 months.
Whenever an area is transferred from a district of one classification
to a district of a different classification, the above regulations
shall apply to nonconforming uses created by such transfer.
A nonconforming lot of record may be developed for any allowable
use in the district it is located as long as the setback requirements
are met.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this
chapter, preexisting nonconforming single-family residential structures
within the RW B District may remain and may be enlarged and/or altered
as long as such enlargement or alteration can be accomplished within
the established setbacks for the district.
