(Ord. No. 297, § 9.02.030.010, 3-20-2007)

So long as a nonconforming use, building or structure exists upon any lot, no new use, building or structure may be established or constructed thereon, except as hereinafter expressly provided.

(Ord. No. 297, § 9.02.030.020, 3-20-2007)

(b)

Repair and maintenance.

Ordinary repair and maintenance. The ordinary repair and maintenance of a nonconforming building or structure shall be permitted, provided that the cost thereof shall not exceed, in any calendar year, an aggregate total of 50 percent of the then assessed value of the building or structure.

(2)

Eminent domain. The repair, reconstruction or remodeling of any building or structure shall be permitted where part of such building or structure is taken for any public use by condemnation, dedication or purchase by any agency having the power of eminent domain. Such reconstruction, alteration or repair shall be limited to that necessary to render the said building or structure reasonably safe for continued use.

(3)

Conforming buildings. This section shall not be construed to place any limitation upon any reconstruction, repair or remodeling deemed appropriate by the property owner where the building or structure is conforming, but the use thereof is not.

(4)

Partial destruction. Where any nonconforming building or structure is damaged or partially destroyed by fire, explosion, Act of God, or any other casualty, the same may be restored to the condition in which it existed immediately prior to the occurrence of such casualty, provided that:

If such work does not result in the addition of residential units, then compliance shall be had with the off-street parking requirements of this title for all such units located upon such lot, including new or additional units; or

(4)

Reconstruction. Such work shall be permitted to replace a nonconforming building or structure in its entirety, or in part at a cost that exceeds 50 percent of its then assessed value, provided that the new building or structure does not change or intensify the previous use.

(d)

Effect of work.

(1)

Accomplishment of any work permitted pursuant to Subsection (c) of this section, or repair or maintenance, permitted pursuant to Subsection (b) of this section, shall not be construed so as to extend the termination date of the nonconforming use, building or structure to which the same relates.

(2)

Prior to the issuance of a building permit, the owner of the property shall submit a statement, in writing, to the City declaring that the accomplishment of any permitted work pursuant to Subsection (b) or (c) of this section shall not extend the termination date of the nonconforming use, building or structure to which the same relates, so that the new building or structure shall have the same termination date as the building or structure that was replaced.

Public utilities exempt. The foregoing provisions of this chapter concerning the required removal of nonconforming buildings and structures partially destroyed shall not apply to public utility buildings and structures when such buildings and structures pertain directly to the rendering of the service or distribution of a utility, such as steam electric generating stations, electric distribution and transmission substations, communications equipment buildings, water wells and pumps, gas storage, metering and valve control stations; nor shall any provision of this chapter be construed or applied so as to prevent the expansion, modernization or replacement of such public utility buildings, structures, equipment and facilities, as are used directly for the delivery of or distribution of the service, provided that this section shall not exempt such uses from the provisions hereof covering nonconformity of such buildings, structures or uses, as to those not immediately related to the direct service to consumers, such as warehouses, storage yards and the like.

(3)

Public acquisition. Whenever any lot, building or structure or portion thereof is rendered nonconforming, within the meaning hereof, solely by reason of dedication to, or purchase by, a public agency for any public purpose or eminent domain proceedings, the same shall not be deemed nonconforming within the meaning of this chapter, provided that if, subsequent to such acquisition, the buildings and/or structures located upon such lot are wholly destroyed, no reconstruction shall take place unless compliance is had with all of the provisions thereof.

(Ord. No. 297, § 9.02.030.030, 3-20-2007)

Nonconforming buildings, uses and structures shall be abated and such usage thereof shall be terminated upon the expiration of the periods of time indicated hereinafter in this subsection. Said periods of time shall be deemed to commence to run as of the date that such use, building or structure first became nonconforming by reason of the application thereto of the development code of the City:

For the purposes of this chapter, an owner means any person with a legal or equitable interest in and to real property, except for the purposes of Subsection (2)d.2 and 3 of this section only, when notification of the owner, as shown on the last equalized assessment rolls, and the occupant of the building shall be deemed to be adequate notice.
