Hi
If a mixed-use zoned property was last used for residentialpurposes (council has plans of a two flat boarding house set up).. can it's use be automatically continued as residential or as a boarding house?
Bit rough round the edges, but was fire separated, etc….there are also two power meters.
Council does NOT have this listed as flats now.
I know there are many variables in something like this, but can existing usage rights be claimed.
There are a few too many rooms and not enough light as well.
Would it be best to leave as is (fire engineer hinted it was) or have it redrawn?
I would prefer to loose a couple of rooms and pull in the light,but if it means a whole load of hoops and costs I’d rather just leave the dooropen and let tenants use the room as extra living space….
Any advice would be appreciated.
