Within the districts established by this Code, some lots, uses of lands or structures, or combinations thereof may exist which were lawful prior to the effective date or amendment of this Code, but that are prohibited, regulated, or restricted under the terms of this Code. The legitimate interest of those who lawfully established these nonconformities are herein recognized by providing for the continuance of such uses, subject to regulations limiting their completion, restoration, reconstruction, extension, and/or substitution. Nevertheless, while it is the intent of this Code that such nonconformities be allowed to continue until removed, they should not be encouraged to survive, unless otherwise allowed in this chapter or specifically addressed in this Code.
