It is the purpose of this subchapter to provide for the regulation of non-conforming buildings, structures and uses and to specify those requirements, circumstances and conditions under which non- conforming buildings, structures and uses will be operated and maintained. This chapter establishes separate districts, each of which is an appropriate area for the location of uses which are permitted in that district. It is necessary and consistent with the establishment of these districts that non-conforming buildings, structures and uses not be permitted to continue without restriction. Furthermore, it is the intent of this chapter that all non-conforming uses shall be eventually brought into conformity.
