This chapter establishes special regulations for nonconforming land uses and structures that were lawful before the adoption or amendment of this Zoning Code, but which would be prohibited, regulated, or restricted differently under the current terms of this Zoning Code or future amendments. It is the intent of these regulations to allow the continuation of nonconformities under the limited conditions outlined herein and reconstruction in the event of natural disaster.
