(a) It is recognized that there exists within the districts established by this Zoning Code or amendments that may later be adopted lots, structures and uses of land and structures which were lawful before this Zoning Code was passed or amended, but which would be prohibited, regulated or restricted under the terms of this Zoning Code. It is the intent of this Zoning Code to permit these nonconformities to continue until they are removed, but not to encourage their survival. Such uses are declared by this Zoning Code to be incompatible with permitted uses in the districts involved. It is further the intent of this Zoning Code that nonconformities shall not be enlarged upon, expanded or extended, nor be used as grounds for adding other structures or uses prohibited elsewhere in the same district.
