   Regulations for the continuance, maintenance, repair, restoring, moving and discontinuance of nonconforming buildings, land and uses are established in order to achieve, among others, the following purposes:
   (a)    To permit the continuance but control of lawful nonconformity so as to minimize any adverse effect on the adjoining properties and development;
   (b)    To regulate their maintenance, repair and extension;
   (c)    To restrict their rebuilding if substantially destroyed;
   (d)    To require their permanent discontinuance if not operated for certain periods; and
   (e)    To require conformity if it is discontinued, to bring about eventual conformity in accordance with the objectives of the Master Plan of the City.
