Dear Mr. Harris :
Please be advised I have investigated the use of the
above entitled real estate and it is my opinion that it was
a lawful two-family prior to adoption of the Zoning Ordinance
on August 27 , 1965. Accordingly, it should be afforded the
protection of Section VIII (E. ) of the aforementioned ordinance
relative to nonconforming uses and, thus, it' s current use
as a two-family is permissible.
