amended by making modifications to Article 7 in the following particulars 5
"ARTICLE 7. PROCEDURES AND NONCONFORMITIES
7.2 NONCONFORMITIES: STRUCTURES; USES; LOTS; SITE IMPROVEMENTS; AND
SIGNS
*
*
7.2.8 Nonconforming Site Improvements

fences, walls, lighting, landscaping, or similar site improvements, such nonconformities may
continue and the site may be altered only as provided below.

a. No change shall be made in any nonconforming site improvement which increases the
nonconformity. Changes may be approved by Waiver, if the changes result in the same or a
reduced degree of nonconformity
b. Except in a T3 or T4-R Transect Zone or within an area of the City for which a parking trust
fund has been established and is in effect pursuant to Chapter 35 of the City Code, where
existing Off-street Parking is nonconforming to the requirements of this Code or any other City
standards to any Use permitted in the Transect Zone, Adaptive Use, shall not require the
provision of additional parking or on -site storm water retention or detention. If the prior Use of
such structure was single-family, duplex, or lodging and the site abuts a T3 Transect Zone, the
provision of additional parking shall be required as per the requirement of this Code. No
modifications may be permitted which increase the degree of the existing nonconformity.
Modifications to Off-street Parking may be approved by Waiver, and the Waiver may be
conditioned on safeguards that reduce the degree of nonconformity to the extent reasonably
feasible in the circumstances of the case.
c. Structures converting to a Co-Livinq use shall meet all of the requirements listed in Article 4,
Table 4 and Article 6, Table 13.

Resolution is declared invalid, the remaining provisions of this Resolution shall not be affected.
