There is an active violation for work without a permit from 2006 on a building I am considering buying . It seems apparently someone 331′ed in the non-permit curb cut/parking pad which resulted in this inspection and subsequent violation. I don’t mind the violation (as the parking spot works for us) and it won’t affect my financing, but will it affect my ability to file a permit for some required basement structural work the place will need? Here’s a link to the DOB violation, what do you make of it? From talking to an architect, it doesn’t seem as if the parking can be made legal. Advice greatly appreciated before I get in over my head!
