1139.07 EXPANSION OR SUBSTITUTION OF NONCONFORMING USES.
   The Board of Zoning Appeals may approve, approve with conditions, or disapprove an application for expansion or substitution of a nonconforming use, as described in Section 1125.06, based on written findings of fact in consideration of the following standards. The failure of the proposed work to conform to any single factor or standard may not necessarily be a sufficient basis for denial:
(a)   Consistent. The proposed use is consistent with the general purposes and intent of the Code;
(b)   Safety and Efficiency. The proposed use promotes the safe and efficient use of land;
(c)   Compatibility. The proposed use is compatible with other adjacent land uses and buildings existing in the surrounding area;
(d)   Neighborhood Compatibility. The proposed use is not inconsistent with the purposes of the zoning district in which the use is located and does not negatively impact the value of surrounding property; and
(e)   Limited Purpose Building. The proposed use would be located in a building that is specially equipped or structurally designed for that use.
