§ 17.40.030. Modification of nonconforming structures.

Latest version.

Upon the issuance of a special permit from the city council, nonconforming structures (excluding single- and two-family residential structures) may be modified as follows:
A.

Reconstructed, extended or structurally changed;

B.

Altered to provide for a substantially different purpose or for the same purpose in a substantially different manner or to a substantially greater extent.

The city council may award a special permit only if it determines that such reconstruction, extension, alteration or change shall not be substantially more detrimental than the existing nonconforming structure to the neighborhood. The reconstruction, extension, alteration or change of a nonconforming structure, as set forth herein, shall include any increase of an existing nonconformity, or the creation of a new nonconformity and shall require only the award of a special permit as authorized under this section.
