§ 153.160 CONVERSIONS.
   Local governments may allow existing land uses and facilities to be converted to residential planned developments if all of the following standards are met:
   (A)   (1)   Proposed conversions shall be initially evaluated using the same procedures for planned developments involving all new construction.
      (2)   Inconsistencies between existing features of the development and these standards shall be identified.
   (B)   Deficiencies involving water supply and sewage treatment, structure color, impervious coverage, open space and shore recreation facilities shall be corrected as part of the conversion or as specified in the conditional use permit.
   (C)   Shore impact zone deficiencies shall be evaluated and reasonable improvements made as part of the conversion. These improvements shall include, where applicable, the following:
      (1)   Removal of extraneous buildings, docks or other facilities that no longer need to be located in shore impact zones;
      (2)   Remedial measures to correct erosion sites and improve vegetative cover and screening of buildings and other facilities as viewed from the water; and
      (3)   If existing dwelling units are located in shore impact zones, conditions are attached to approvals of conversions that preclude exterior expansions in any dimension or substantial alterations. The conditions shall also provide for future relocation of dwelling units, where feasible, to other locations, meeting all setback and elevation requirements when they are rebuilt or replaced.
