The area of development for such projects shall be the area of the site containing buildings, additions, structures, facilities or improvements proposed by the applicant or required to serve those items proposed by the applicant.

Use of nonconforming structures abandoned for a period of twelve (12) or more consecutive months (cross-reference LDR section 904.08) located on a nonconforming property shall not be permitted until the property is brought into compliance with the requirements of a compatible property. 2. Except as otherwise provided herein, there may be a change of tenancy or ownership of a nonconforming property, without the loss of nonconforming status, if use of the nonconforming structures is not abandoned for a period of twelve (12) or more consecutive months. 3. Colors of a structure located on a nonconforming property shall not be changed from those existing at the time of the adoption of these special regulations, unless the new, to -be -painted colors comply with the SR 60 special color regulations. 4. Projects on nonconforming properties requiring a building permit (excluding permits for roofs or minor repairs) shall be required to bring the property into compliance as a "compatible property." 5.
