(A) The conversion of any structure or structures either residential or nonresidential so as to accommodate an increased number of dwelling units or families, or another permitted use, shall be permitted only within the zone of which a new building for similar occupancy would be permitted under this chapter.
(B) The resulting occupancy shall comply with all requirements governing new construction in the zone including, but not limited to, floor area, dimension or yards, open space and off-street parking. The aforesaid shall apply if the conversion involves no exterior structural changes to a principal building but shall apply if any accessory building is converted to a principal building.
