The examination of your file has revealed that certain Plans were approved for the establishment of a living area above the garage. Please note that this was not a conversion, but, rather, an approved Plan during the course of the actual construction. Please let me know what I need to do to have the Certificate of Occupancy amended to show living area as opposed to storage area.
