§ 154.044 NONCONFORMING BUILDINGS AND USES.
   (A)   The lawful use of a building or premises existing at the time of adoption or amendment of these zoning regulations may be continued although such use does not conform with the provisions of these regulations. Such nonconforming use may be enlarged to an extent not to exceed more than 50% of the existing floor area, if it can meet all the other zoning regulations at the effective date of this chapter or at such later date as a building may become nonconforming by reason of a change in zoning regulations.
   (B)   An existing mobile home or manufactured home that is located on a residential-zoned parcel of land (subject site) and is determined to be nonconforming as defined in this chapter may be replaced on said parcel with a manufactured home that meets all the requirements set forth in § 154.022(A)(3) and 154.022(E) of this chapter, provided that all other zoning requirements of the residential district in which it is located and all of the following conditions are met:
      (1)   An application to replace an existing mobile home or manufactured home must be submitted to the City of White Hall no later than 30 days after removing an existing mobile home or manufactured home from the subject site. If the subject site has been vacated by the mobile home or manufactured home for over 30 days at the time an application for the mobile home/manufactured home replacement is made, the application will not be considered.
      (2)   Documentation that the home to be replaced is the principal residence of the applicant and that he or she will be the occupant of the replacement manufactured home must accompany the application for mobile home/manufactured home replacement. Current occupancy documentation must be in the form of a current water or electric bill for the subject site that shows normal residential usage. Documentation of occupancy of the replacement manufactured home shall be a purchase agreement between the applicant and the manufactured home vendor or similar document that also shows where the home is to be situated.
      (3)   A site plan reasonably drawn to scale that shows a) the proposed location of the replacement manufactured home, b) any other structures that will remain on the subject site or are proposed to be located on the subject site, and c) the location of all existing or proposed off-street parking must be submitted with the application for mobile home/manufactured home replacement.
      (4)   The replacement manufactured home must be completely installed on the subject site and any other requirements of this chapter must be completed no later than 60 days after issuance of a permit to replace an existing mobile home or manufactured home. A reasonable time extension may be granted through a variance (see 154.092) by the White Hall Board of Zoning Adjustment upon submission of proof that circumstances beyond the control of the applicant have prevented the timely completion of implementation of the replacement permit. Financial constraints shall not be considered as a circumstance beyond the control of the applicant.
