42-296. Nonconforming Structures Containing Nonconforming Uses
- Improvement or Alteration of a Structure. Where a nonconforming structure contains a nonconforming use, no improvement or alteration of the nonconforming structure is permitted except where such improvement or alteration:
- Does not result in an expansion/enlargement of the structure;
- Is required by law or order from the Zoning Administrator, Building Inspector or Fire Marshal to ensure safety of the structure; or
- Is on a residential structure (where such alteration may occur provided that no additional dwelling units result, and that the alteration complies with the requirements for residential structures of the applicable district).
- Nonconforming Use. Standards for nonconforming uses shall also apply (see §42-297 - Nonconforming Uses).
- Enlargement or Expansion of a Use. A nonconforming use of a structure may be enlarged or expanded only into portions of the structure which existed at the time the use became nonconforming.
