1177.01 PURPOSE.
Within the districts established by this Zoning Ordinance or amendments that may later be adopted, there exist lots, structures and uses of land and structures which were lawful before this Ordinance was passed or amended, but which would be prohibited, regulated or restricted under the terms of this Ordinance or future amendment. Council declares that nonconforming uses and structures are incompatible with permitted uses in the districts involved and shall not be enlarged, expanded or extended, nor shall they be used as grounds for adding other structures or uses prohibited by this Ordinance.
