Would trigger new requirements under the Building Code, which might make this project unfeasible for the applicants. There is a narrow lot. They would have additional egress requirements. When this project started, i believe in a. D. U. Was not possible until you would need at least three years to add it, so at the time it could have been added with thought for the future, but i believe the staff and the project architects can speak more directly on the requirements under t

I see that her lease his lease goes to august is there an agreement that she is coming back, or has she put anything in riding that she is no longer a tenant . I would like i dont want a permit that we are, you know, approving to be causing the eviction of a tenant. Absolutely. That is not the intention. I am 56 years old and named julio.
