Nonconforming structures may be allowed to continue and remain and be used subject to the following:

(a)

Where a nonconforming structure houses a nonconforming use, the regulations for nonconforming structures and nonconforming uses shall both apply. In case of conflict, the rules for nonconforming uses shall prevail.

(b)

A nonconforming structure may continue as it existed when it legally became nonconforming and may be expanded or redeveloped in accordance with section 14-146, but in no event shall a nonconforming structure be expanded, or altered in a way that increases the degree of any nonconformity.

(c)

Governmental acquisition of a portion of a lot for public purpose that results in reduction in a lot size or that creates an encroachment of a setback line by an existing structure shall not render the structure nonconforming.
