               Any business lawfully operating on the effective date of the ordinance from which
               this article derives that is in violation of the locational or structural configuration
               requirements of this article shall be deemed a nonconforming use. The nonconforming
               use will be permitted to continue for a period of two years, unless sooner terminated
               for any reason or voluntarily discontinued for a period of 30 days or more.

               A sexually oriented business lawfully operating as a conforming use is not rendered
               a nonconforming use by the location, subsequent to the grant or renewal of the sexually
               oriented business license. This provision applies only to the renewal of a valid adult
               entertainment license, and does not apply when an application for a business license
               is submitted after a business license has expired or has been revoked.
