(a) A sign, lawfully existing at the time this Zoning Code, or any amendment thereto, became or becomes effective, but which does not comply with the sign regulations of the Zoning District in which it is located is a nonconforming sign. Nonconforming signs shall comply with the provisions set forth in Chapter 1179.
(b) Nothing in this Zoning Code shall prevent the temporary removal of an established sign for the purpose of cleaning, repainting and/or repair, as long as such restoration returns the condition of the sign to the same size and with same wording that it contained prior to the restoration.
