Nonconformin2 Uses Conflicts between the existing land use and the existing zoning on a parcel of land occur when the use of the land was lawfully occupied at the time when the zoning ordinance became effective. These uses of land are considered legal nonconforming uses. A legal nonconforming use may be continued as long as it remains otherwise lawful, subject to the provisions in the zoning ordinance related to expansions, reconstructions, and discontinuation of the use.
