In the event that any non-conforming building or other nonconforming structures or any building or structure devoted in whole or in part to a nonconforming use is damaged or destroyed by any means, to the extent of more than fifty percent (50%) of its fair market value at the time of damage, such building or other structure shall not be restored unless such building or other structure and the use thereof conform to the regulations of the District in which it is located. If such damage is fifty percent (50%) or less of its current fair market value, it may be restored or reconstructed to its previous size, shape, and dimensional characteristics and the previous Use may be permitted, if (1) a Zoning Permit is obtained, (2) restoration actually commences within one year after the date of such partial destruction, and (3) the restoration is substantially completed within two and one-half (2 ½) years from when the Zoning Permit is issued.
