After reviewing this application, I have the following comments and questions regarding this application. If there is going to be any repairing of vehicles on the site, it will need a Building Permit for a change of use. An architect would be required because of the size of the building and auto repair is a stricter use. It would also require some handicapped accessibility work to be done. Be advised that this is a review for the Planning and Zoning application only and not for any other permits. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
