OK, two questions. We just had an unbelievable offer on the building we are in. Can't refuse the offer so we are now faced with purchasing another one. Problem is it's a 30,000 sq ft old school that has been vacant for over 2-3 years. Now since it has been, the borough rezoned as R2 only allowing a 2 family dwelling in it. To boot, it's in the flood zone. Being a realtor, I always steer people away from this but it's a perfect building for our use. Now I am faced with trying to get a non conforming use through and FAST......ha ha. Anyone have a similiar story and any tips? Good thing is the borough knows there is really no other good use for the building due to all the restrictions so I think they are on my side.
Now second questions and the big one....what about ADA compliance? Any way around this for a season use? This building is not laid out at all for ramps, handicap accessible without putting in an additional and elevator. This is just not in our budget and I have to deal with flood zone issues on this as well. Any tips on how to get around this issue?
I am meeting with L&I tomorrow morning, just wanted to see if there were any exceptions you guys might know about?
Oh, and the sprinkler thing as well? A whole nothing thing.
