§ 58-107. Purpose; applicability.

Latest version.

Nonconforming uses, which are uses of structures or of land existing at the time of the adoption or amendment of the ordinance from which this chapter is derived but which do not comply with the provisions of this chapter, are declared by this chapter to be incompatible with permitted uses in the various districts. The intent of this article is to permit the continued use of a structure, or portion thereof, or of the use of land legally existing prior to the effective date of the ordinance from which this chapter is derived until such uses are removed, but not to encourage their survival. Such nonconforming uses shall not be expanded, extended, or changed in any manner except as provided in this article. Creation of additional nonconforming uses are not to be encouraged.
