a.  according to applicable zoning ordinances and amendments, the Land is not classified Zone _____________________;
b.  the following use or uses are not allowed under that classification:

This paragraph 1.c. does not modify or limit the coverage provided in Covered Risk 5.

2. The Company further insures against loss or damage sustained by the Insured by reason of a final decree of a court of competent jurisdiction either prohibiting the use of the Land, with any existing structure, as specified in paragraph 1.b. or requiring the removal or alteration of the structure, because, at Date of Policy, the zoning ordinances and amendments have been violated with respect to any of the following matters:

b.  Floor space area of the structure
c.  Setback of the structure from the property lines of the Land
d.  Height of the structure, or
