1280.07 NONCONFORMING STRUCTURES.
   Where a lawful structure exists on the effective date of this chapter (Ordinance 76-31, passed June 21, 1976) that could not be built under this Zoning Code by reason of restrictions on area, lot coverage, height, yards, its location on the lot, bulk or other requirements concerning the structure, such structure may be continued so long as it remains otherwise lawful, subject to the following provisions:
   (a)   No such nonconforming structure may be enlarged or altered in a way which increases its nonconformity, but any structure or portion thereof may be altered to decrease its nonconformity.
   (b)   If such nonconforming structure or nonconforming portion of a structure is destroyed by any means, it shall not be reconstructed except in conformity with this Zoning Code.
   (c)   If such structure is moved for any reason for any distance, it shall thereafter conform to the regulations for the district in which it is located after it is moved.
