The conversion of any structure or structures either residential or non-residential so as to accommodate an increased number of dwelling units or families, or another permitted use, shall be permitted only within the zone in which a new building for similar occupancy would be permitted under the zoning regulations. The resulting occupancy shall comply with all requirements governing new construction in such zone including, but not limited to, floor area, dimension of yards, open space, landscaping and off-street parking. The aforesaid requirements with respect to yards and other open spaces shall not apply if the conversion involves no exterior structural changes to a principal building but shall apply if any accessory building is converted to a principal building.
