Any alteration of a nonconforming use shall make the use more closely adhere to the intent and purposes of this chapter. Applications for alteration of a nonconforming use shall be made as a request for a special use permit to the zoning board. The board shall ensure that no alteration is permitted which would increase the degree of nonconformity, except in the Village Special Development Overlay District where the zoning board may allow alteration or expansion at its discretion in conformance with article 11, Jamestown Village Special Development District, and the standards in this chapter.
