Wench FINAL Land DercIop... nm Code 8. 00. 00 GENERALLY The purpose of this chapter is to provide mechanisms for obtaining relief from the provisions of this LDC where hardship would otherwise occur. There are several ways that potential relief from hardship is addressed: potential relief through requirements regarding the use of and changes to nonconforming development; potential relief through the grant of a variance from the site development standards of this LDC; potential relief when an administrative decision is appealed; and potential relief when an administrative waiver is granted to modify certain site development standards of this LDC. 8. 01. 00 NONCONFORMING SITUATIONS 8. 01. 01 Generally c e) A. Purpose It is the purpose of this section to address the continuation and potential modification m E of uses, structures, lots, and site features that meet the following conditions: I. A use, structure, lot, or site feature that was lawfully established and in d compliance with regulations applicable to the use, structure, lot, or site feature at a the time of establishment of such use, structure, lot, or site feature; and 9a 2. Such use, structure, lot, or site feature does not comply with the regulations set forth in this LDC. xJ This situation is called a nonconformity. o B. It is the intent of the City to: n I. Establish two ( 2) types of nonconformities: benign and detrimental; 2. Allow continuation of nonconformities until such nonconformities are abandoned; o 3. Allow change of use of specified nonconfarmities; 4. Allow modifications to specified nonconformities; and o 5. Eliminate or reduce detrimental nonconformities. C. It is further the intent of the City that the casual, intermittent, temporary, or illegal use of land, water, buildings, structures, characteristics of use, or any such use in r combination shall not be sufficient to establish the existence of a nonconforming use m to create rights in the continuance of such use. v D. Maintenance Normal and customary maintenance or repair of nonconforming lots, sites, and structures shall be allowed, provided that such maintenance or repair does not o otherwise increase the extent of the nonconformity. Maintenance or repair shall be u performed only to ensure safety and to prevent a nuisance. E. Relocation of nonconforming buildings or structures u A nonconforming structure shall not be moved, in whole or in part, to another E location within the City, unless the lot, site, and resulting structure placement conforms in all respects to the standards and requirements of this LDC a 8. 01. 02 Types of Nonconformities A. Benign nonconformities 1. A benign nonconformity exists when the degree of nonconformity does not result in a harmful or unsafe condition. A negative impact on public safety or health is not expected to occur due to the continuation or modification of a benign N arlaoom Goni ,Sand ard,
