   Antennas and towers in the city as of the publishing of this subchapter which do not conform to or comply with this subchapter are subject to the following provisions:
   (A)   Towers may continue in use for the purpose now used and as now existing but may not be replaced or structurally altered without complying in all respects with this subchapter; and
   (B)   If such towers are hereafter damaged or destroyed due to any reason or cause whatsoever, the tower may be repaired and restored to its former use, location and physical dimensions upon obtaining a building permit without otherwise complying with this subchapter; provided, however, that if the cost of repairing the tower to the former use, location and physical dimensions would exceed the cost of a new tower of like kind and quality, then the tower may not be repaired or restored, except in full compliance with this subchapter.
