   (C)   Any lawful nonconforming use in a conforming building or structure existing in a residence district on the effective date of the ordinance codified in this chapter, or any amendments thereto which is permitted in this chapter as a permitted or conditional permitted use only in a business or manufacturing district shall be entirely discontinued within ten years from the date of the ordinance codified in this chapter or ten years from the date of amendment, unless the village approves by motion, resolution or ordinance the continuation of the nonconforming use in a conforming building or structure existing in the residence district.
