(a) Within the districts established by this Ordinance or amendments that may later be adopted, there exist lots, uses of land, structures, and uses of structures and land in combination, which were lawful before this Ordinance was passed or amended, but which would be prohibited, regulated or restricted under the terms of this Ordinance or future amendments. It is the intent of this Ordinance to permit these non-conformities to continue until they are removed, but not to encourage their survival. It is further the intent of this Ordinance that non-conformities 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.
(b) It is not the intention herein to classify as nonconforming a use or building allowed in a district as a conditional use under the regulations of this Ordinance.
