A. The nonconformity provisions of this Chapter 23.42 apply to uses and sites in all zones, except for the Shoreline District (see Chapter 23.60A ). B. It is the intent of these provisions to establish a framework for dealing with nonconformity that allows most nonconformities to continue. The Code facilitates the maintenance and enhancement of nonconforming uses and developments so they may exist as an asset to their neighborhoods. The redevelopment of nonconformities to be more conforming to current code standards is a long term goal. (Ord. 124105 , § 15, 2013; Ord. 120293 , § 1, 2001.)
