Prior to the adoption of Ord. 2005-07 on 06/01/2005, Section 16.12.040 read as follows.
A. The nonconforming noncomplying use
of a building or structure existing at the
time the applicable zoning regulations became or become effective may be continued.
B. A vacant nonconforming noncomplying
building or structure may be occupied by
a use for which the building or structure was designed or intended if so occupied within a
period of one (1) year after the building or structure became nonconforming.
C. A nonconforming use may be extended to include the
entire floor area of the
existing building in which it was conducted at the time use became nonconforming.
D. Except by permit of the Board of Adjustment as provided
in Chapter 16.10 of this
title, the nonconforming use of a building or structure may not be changed except to a
conforming use; however, where such change is made to a conforming use, the use shall
not thereafter be changed back to a nonconforming use. (PZSC § 03-05-004)
