If a nonconforming use in an existing structure has been discontinued for a period in excess of 12 months as noted in Section 1260.190, a special exception may be granted if all of the following are found to apply:
(a) The proposed use shall not pose a conflict with existing adjacent permitted uses in the district.
(b) The structure in question has been determined to have been designed for the type of use included in the application for a special exception, and conversion to a permitted use has been determined to be not feasible.
(c) The application does not request a special exception for a nonconforming use on a lot presently vacant.
