FPR section 201.2 is amended to read as follows: This section shall apply unless equivalent provisions are incorporated in the city or county flood plain zoning ordinance. Nonconforming Use: A structure or the use of a structure or premises which was lawful before the passage or amendment of the ordinance but which is not in conformity with the provisions of these regulations may be continued subject to the following conditions: 1. No such use shall be expanded, changed, enlarged, or altered in a way which increases its nonconformity. 2. No structural alteration, addition, or repair to any conforming structure over the life of the structure shall exceed 50 percent of its market value at the time of its becoming a nonconforming use, unless the structure is permanently changed to a conforming use. 3. If such use is discontinued for 12 consecutive months, any future use of the building premises shall conform to these regulations. The assessor shall notify the zoning administrator in writing of instances of nonconforming uses which have been discontinued for a period of 12 months. 4. If any nonconforming use or structure is destroyed by any means, including floods, to an extent of 50 percent or more of its market value, it shall not be reconstructed except in conformance with the provisions of these regulations; provided, the Board of Appeals may permit reconstruction if the use or structure is located outside the floodway and is adequately and safely floodproofed, elevated, or otherwise protected in conformance with these regulations. 5. Uses or adjuncts thereof which are or become nuisances shall not be entitled to continue as nonconforming uses. 6. An alteration, addition, or repair to a nonconforming structure that exceeds 50 percent of its market value must be protected as required by these regulations.
