Any nonconforming lot, building, structure or use legally existing
at the time of adoption of this chapter, or which is created whenever
a district is changed by amendment hereafter, may be continued, altered,
reconstructed, sold, or maintained, even through it does not conform
to the regulations of the district in which it is located, except
as provided below. It is the intent of this chapter to permit these
nonconformities to continue until they are removed, discontinued,
or abandoned.
To facilitate the administration of this section, it may be
the duty of the Zoning Officer to document any nonconforming uses,
structures, and lots identified during the evaluation of an application
for a zoning permit. The application file shall identify the nonconforming
aspect of the property. Any applicant aggrieved of any decision rendered
therefrom may file an appeal with the Borough Zoning Hearing Board.
