A nonconformity (i.e., parcel, sign, structure, or use) may be maintained and continued with customary maintenance and repair without any expansion or enlargement of area, space, or volume, except as otherwise provided in this Article. A nonconformity may be maintained provided that no structural alterations shall be made to structural supporting members (i.e., bearing wall, column, beam, girder, rafter, joist and the like), except as required for health and safety as determined by the Building Official and in compliance with Section 18.92.050 (Repair and Alteration of Nonconforming Structures), below.
