A lawfully existing structure which contains no nonconforming use, but which does not comply with the applicable lot size requirements, building bulk regulations, or off-street parking requirements may be continued so long as it remains otherwise lawful. Such "nonconforming structures" shall be subject to the following requirements:
(a) A nonconforming structure may be maintained and repaired. However, no maintenanceor repair shall either create any additional nonconformity or increase the degree of the existing nonconformity of all or any part of such structure; and damaged or destroyed structures shall be subject to the restrictions in subsection (b) hereof.
(b) In the event that a nonconforming structure is damaged or destroyed, by any means, to such an extent that the cost of restoring it to the condition in which it was prior to such damage or destruction exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the current assessed value of the entire structure, such structure shall not be restored unless it thereafter conforms to the regulations for the district in which it is located.
(c) No nonconforming structure shall be moved in whole or in part, for any distance whatever, to any other location on the same or any other lot unless the entire structure thereafter conforms to the regulations of the district in which it is located after being moved.
(d) The Zoning Administrator may, at their discretion, require the elimination of all, or a portion of, any nonconformity as a condition of the issuance of a Zoning Use Permit for the property.
