A. Cause of Nonconformity. A nonconformity may result from any inconsistency with the Zoning Ordinance, whether substantive or procedural, including, but not limited to:

1. The inconsistency of the use, building, or structure or aspects thereof, with any requirement of the Zoning Ordinance; and

2. The lack of a Zoning Certificate, AUP, or Use Permit.

B. Change to a Conforming Use or Structure. A use, building, or structure which is nonconforming solely by reason of the lack of a Zoning Certificate, AUP, or Use Permit may be recognized as a conforming use, building, or structure by issuance of the required Zoning Certificate, AUP, or Use Permit.

C. Permit and Approvals Required. A use, building, or structure conforms to the Zoning Ordinance only if it was established or constructed with the prior approval of, or legalized after the fact by, the issuance of the required Zoning Certificate, AUP, or Use Permit.

D. Nonconformities in Continuous Existence. A lawful nonconforming use, structure, building, or lot shall be deemed to comply with the Zoning Ordinance if it has remained in continuous existence. (Ord. 7787-NS § 2 (Exh. A), 2021)
