If lawful use involving individual structures with a replacement cost of $1,000 or more, or of structure and premises in combination, exists at the effective date of adoption or amendment of this Ordinance, that would not be allowed in the district under the terms of this Ordinance, the lawful use may be continued so long as it remains otherwise lawful, subject to the following provisions.
1. No existing structure devoted to a use not permitted by this Ordinance in the district in which it is located shall be enlarged, Extended, constructed, reconstructed, moved or structurally altered except in changing the use of the structure to a use permitted in the district in which it is located;
2.
Any conforming use may be extended throughout any parts of
a building which were arranged or designed for such use at
the time of adoption or amendment of this Ordinance, but no
such use shall be extended to occupy any land outside such
building;
3. Any structure, or structure and land in combination, in or on which a non-conforming use is superseded by a permitted use, shall thereafter conform to the regulations for the district, and the non-conforming use may not thereafter be resumed;
4. When a non-conforming use of a structure, or structure and premises in combination, is discontinued or abandoned for 1 year, (except when government action impedes access to the premises), the structure, or structure and premises in combination, shall not thereafter be used except in conformity with the regulations of the district in which it is located;
5. Where non-conforming use status applies to a structure and premises in combination, removal or destruction of the structure shall eliminate the non-conforming status of the land. Destruction for the purpose of this subsection is defined as damage to an extent of more than 50 percent [or other figure] of the replacement cost at time of destruction.
