Latest version.
  • Except as otherwise provided
      in sections 28-101.4.1, 28-101.4.2, 28-101.4.3 or 28-101.4.4 changes  in
      the  use  or  occupancy  of  any  building  or  structure made after the
      effective date of this code shall comply with  the  provisions  of  this
      code.  Any  changes  made  in  the  use  or  occupancy  of a building or
      structure not in compliance with this code shall be prohibited and shall
      be a violation of this code. After a change in use or occupancy has been
      made in a building, the re-establishment of a  prior  use  or  occupancy
      that  would  not  be  lawful  in a new building of the same construction
      class shall be prohibited unless and until all the applicable provisions
      of this code and other applicable laws and rules for such  reestablished
      use  or  occupancy  shall  have  been complied with. A change from a use
      prohibited by the provisions of this code, but which was permitted prior
      to the effective date of this code, to another  use  prohibited  by  the
      provisions of this code shall be deemed a violation of this code.
