(1) An extension of a structure, or placement
of an accessory building, which does not further encroach upon the violated height, area, or land requirement, may be granted upon approval by the zoning administrator, if it is found that the extension or placement of the structure is not detrimental to the intent of the land use ordinance.
(2) If the intended extension or placement of the nonconforming structure further encroaches upon the violated height, area, or yard requirement, the request shall be reviewed through the variance process and acted upon by the administrative hearing officer.
(3) A non-conforming building or structure shall not be moved in whole or in part to any other location on the property on which it is situated unless every portion of such building or structure is made to conform to all the requirements of the district in which it is located.
