Latest version.
  • Changes in the occupancy or use
      of any building may be made after  the  effective  date  of  this  code,
      subject  to  the  provisions  of section 27-217 of article twenty-two of
      this subchapter. After a change in occupancy or use has been made  in  a
      building,  the  re-establishment  of a prior occupancy or use that would
      not be lawful in a new building of the same construction class shall  be
      prohibited  unless  and until all the applicable provisions of this code
      and other  applicable  laws  and  regulations  for  such  re-established
      occupancy  or  use  shall  have  been complied with. A change from a use
      prohibited by the provisions of this code, but which was permitted prior
      to the effective date of this code, to another  use  prohibited  by  the
      provisions of this code shall be deemed a violation of this code.
