Recently, Shapiro & Associates Law (SAL) successfully procured numerous zoning entitlements for its client which allowed the client to expand its industrial related business on to newly acquired adjacent land and become a legal use under the local zoning code. The matter was further complicated because prior to receiving the necessary zoning approvals, the property was split-zoned and operated under a special use permit which included use definitions which were no longer recognized under the existing zoning code.
In order to resolve the client’s zoning and land use issues, SAL rezoned the entire split-zoned property from Transit Oriented Mixed-Use District and I-4 Heavy Industrial District to I-3 General Industrial District. Further, SAL amended the prior special use permit for the property by including three new special use permits for a Heavy Motor Vehicle Repair Facility with Outdoor Storage and a Parking Lot. Since additional land was added to the property, SAL also received approval for a new site plan which included required variances.
While the zoning matters could have been rather disruptive to the client’s business operations, SAL worked diligently to ensure the client’s property became legal under the zoning code and that the existing and future property needs and uses were met–all without interruption to the client’s business operations during the entire process.
