Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the obligation continues to serve a useful purpose and whether the proposed change to the obligation would serve that purpose equally well

What decided it

The existing occupancy restriction serves the useful purpose of controlling parking demand and limiting resident support needs, and the proposed modifications have not been demonstrated to serve these purposes equally well.
