   (b)    Permit the extension of a nonconforming use or building upon the lot occupied by such use or building;

   (c)    Permit in a use district any use deemed by the Planning Commission in general keeping with the uses authorized in such district; and

   (d)    Permit the location in any use district of any use, provided such use in such location will not in the judgment of the Planning Commission substantially and permanently injure the appropriate use of neighboring property, provided the petitioner files the consents, duly acknowledged, of the owners of eighty percent of the area of the land deemed by the Planning Commission to be immediately affected by the proposed use.
