A. If a nonconforming use of a building or land is not operated for at least thirty (30) continuous business days each calendar year, the nonconforming use is presumed to be intentionally abandoned. Evidence that the lack of use is temporary and that there is no intent to abandon the use may rebut the presumption. Once a nonconforming use is abandoned, the subsequent use of a building or land must conform to the regulations specified by this title for the district in which the land or building is located.
B. If a nonconforming use is changed to an allowed use, whether by right or conditional use permit, the nonconforming use is considered intentionally abandoned. The property may not thereafter be used for the abandoned nonconforming use. (Ord. 3097, 4-7-2008)
