by allowing continued, unamortized use and occupancy
by existing multi-family uses and structures in the
single-family and duplex zones in accord with Housing
Policy #2 of this Plan; and by allowinq continued,
unamo?.tized use and occupancy by off ices in multi-

ordinance, may apply to be excepted from the
termination provisions for non-canforming uses
by action of the Planning Commission and City
Council. Each applicant will be required to
demonstrate that the present use is ~
compatible with those uses that are consistent
with land use desiqnations. once excepted from the

subject to amortization, and in addition,. the
improvements on the property may be remodelled,
