Questions from the board.
You bought the property in 2001
and you've been renting it out since then.
you said, right? Yes, that's correct. And did you have residential, whatever they're calling them
now, but did you have rental licenses? I did purchase rental licenses. Okay. So then I guess
I'm a little confused as to how this is here at this point. If you purchased the property,
you were getting licenses on a regular basis. Why are we here? How did we get here? Is it
good question yeah how did how do we get here well the license wasn't accurate it wasn't all
seven units so i'm trying to just make it right uh there were always seven units in the building
seven kitchens seven bathrooms seven studios but my license read differently so i'm trying to
correct that issue ah oh you should read five so how many units did uh your license say that you
had i think it said four units and two units as an office or something like that but the office
was elapsed use it's no longer like the variance for the office wore out a long time ago
just want to make it clear
Maureen didn't receive any
violations or anything
she realized that there was an issue
and then tried to kind of proactively
get ahead of it
Maureen you've had seven rentals
since you've been there
