(A) Continuation. Any structure which is devoted to a use which is permitted in the zoning district in which it is located, but which is located on a lot which does not comply with the applicable lot size requirements and/or development standards, may be continued, so long as it remains otherwise lawful, subject to the restrictions of divisions (B), (C), and (D) of this section.
(B) Enlargement, repair, alterations. Any structure described in (A) above may be enlarged, maintained, repaired, or structurally altered. However, no such enlargement, maintenance, repair, or structural alteration shall either create any additional nonconformity or increase the degree of existing nonconformity of all or any part of such structures; except that as to structures located on a lot that does not comply with the applicable lot size requirements, the side yard requirements shall be determined by § 152.166 (A) or (B), whichever is applicable.
(C) Damage or destruction. In the event that any structure described in (A) above is damaged or destroyed, by any means, to the extent of more than 75% of the current replacement cost of the entire structure, the structure shall not be restored unless it shall thereafter conforms to the regulations for the zoning district in which it is located, provided that structures located on a lot that does not comply with the applicable lot size requirements shall not in any event be required to provide a side yard that exceeds the yard requirements in § 152.166(A) or (B), whichever is applicable. When a structure is damaged to the extent of 75% or less, no repairs or restoration shall be made unless a zoning certificate is obtained and restoration is actually begun within one year after the date of the partial destruction.
(D) Moving. No structure described in (A) above 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 shall thereafter conform to the regulations of the zoning district in which it will be located after being moved.
