What is the definition of garage attached to a residential building . Garage and the building it is located in is situated in south mumbai, churchgate area of solely residential buildings and is in an area designated as a heritage zone.
If the garage is being taxed as a garage in the Bmc records as opposed to for commericial/ medical purposes can its land use on municipal records be changed by existing tenant in the municipal records without consent of both joint landlords of said garage and residential building?
If the municipality proceeds to do so despite being put on notice by one of the landlords to require permission of both landlords before changing land use, what recourse does the landlord have.
Can a garage located in a residential building where all other garages are used as garages for storage of automobiles belonging to tenants or owners of building be used as a veterinary clinic without change of land use.
If it cannot can this use jeopardize the lease with the collector of mumbai, when such lease requires that use of building conform to the municipal and other governmental regulations that have jurisprudence over it.
If surgery is being conducted in the said garage or premises does it disqualify it from being a clinic or dispensary.
What High Court judgments exist concerning definition of garage and its use and how is it defined in other regulatory documents like DC rules, BMC act,Building and zoning codes that south mumbai needs to adhere to.
Thx
