HI. We have a C of O for a 2 family but are gut renovating our brownstone and have initiated the process to change the C of O into a 1 family + commercial space. Our renovations are ongoing on the residential floors and will be complete in 6 months but we want to use the part of the house (garden level) that is for the commercial area now. Can we get a temporary C of O or a partial C of O to start using that space? or do we have to wait until the entire renovation is done and the full C of O (1 family + commercial) is granted? Does our previous C of O let us use the commercial space in the interim? Thanks in advance.
