Leviathan Song posted:That's what I'm going to do. Thanks for the outside perspective that this is a hotel. If the zoning is turned down, I'll just make a bit less money renting it out as a year long lease rental property. I represent a number of cities, and I can tell you that whatever route you go, getting clearance from the City, either via a permit or written confirmation that you don't need a permit, is the only way to ensure they won't come back later and gently caress with you. Your interpretation of the statute or ordinance is fine and good, but if they don't agree with your interpretation, they're probably going to win that argument. Your land is encumbered by two sets of laws: State law, and City Ordinance. You will have to be in compliance with both to avoid hassle. If this is a mulit-thousand dollar endeavor, and you have potential exposure, consulting with a local attorney is probably your best bet.

Question about drafting: when drafting a commercial contract, where should the duration of the contract be mentioned? For instance, if a contract is a supply agreement intended to last for three years, where should that be mentioned? On the front cover, in the commencement, in the operative provisions, or all of the above? Thanks.

It...shouldn't matter as long as the term is clearly stated?

Short term rentals have been a ubiquitous thing at popular vacation areas for a long time. Every Jersey shore town had local papers with the exact same listings when I was a kid. Most cities are just freaking out because it's trendy now, not because it's actually a new way of renting property.

It's partly a scale problem. airbnb is taking an illegal practice that was generally overlooked, centralizing, organizing, and (failing to) profit from it as the number of people who do it increase.

Hot Dog Day #91 posted:The idea that the city is going to let you refine your house in a residential neighborhood into a hotel is lol. It wouldn't work in a lot of cities but Oklahoma City plays pretty is pretty reasonable in this regard. It's not a pure R1 neighborhood, it's a mix of apartments, houses, and businesses and zoning changes are very common here. If they're willing to redefine a single family house into an 8 unit apartment building, which they've done recently, it's not unreasonable. It's also not an overly risky proposition. The process to request the change is $1800 and the potential income gain is much larger. If you can't afford to risk $1800 to increase the value of the property, then you shouldn't be any kind of landlord.

Wheat Loaf posted:UK. I would say that you'd include it in your introductory paragraph "This is a contract for x to run from y to z" and then it should be an explicit term in the single digits. e: the key thing is to make absolutely sure you don't contradict yourself anywhere because that will incur serious negative marks.

Is there a way to report someone who has a concealed carry permit but shouldn't? My neighbor was bragging about his concealed carry permit which I suspect he should not have because he was involuntary committed (as a minor). He is also bipolar and possibly schizophrenic since he sometimes yells at his chimney as if it was talking to him. He acknowledges his mental illness and is very upfront about not being on any medication since "doctors are money-grubbing quacks." It's okay though, because prayer and herbs keep it under control. Frankly, he seems like he shouldn't be allowed to have weapons at all, but I think I can only have the permit investigated since he is not an immediate threat to himself or others.

Gobbeldygook posted:Your state may have laws specifically forbidding the mentally ill from owning firearms. I have a friend with mental illness that owns guns and was suicidal over the weekend. If the listed statues for my state apply and he's not allowed to own a gun, how can I help get his guns taken away without getting him locked up or getting myself shot by him? If the answer is "you can't", welp.

I've always felt like that's a huge need that's gone unfilled. Maybe you could talk him into getting some tamper seal tape, taping all his guns up and leaving them with a trusted friend or family member for a while. Worst case, maybe you can put the Suicide Hotline number on some index cards and talk him into keeping one of those index cards stored with every gun.

Federal law regarding prohibited possessors (18 USC 922) provides a minimum 'floor' (and the minimum level of due process) for disenfranchisement, notwithstanding a state's rules. I can't tell whether an involuntary commitment as a juvenile counts. It will probably hinge on the level of due process and psych expert input at the time.

Good evening lawyers, I just got laid off from a job I've held for 3 years with glowing reviews from management and peers. The claim was "financial reasons," but I was the least paid and had a high bill rate and bill percentage compared with some of the old-timers (this was consulting work, but not law). Here's the thing: I have a chronic illness and just submitted FMLA paperwork to CMA for some missed days and was going in today to talk about short-term disability leave when instead I was laid off. Does this sound like a situation for recourse? Because I sure feel hosed, and not in a good way.

Sounds fishy enough to talk to a lawyer. A free consult couldn't hurt. Don't get your hopes up, though, and make sure you have a clear idea of your objectives, and what you're willing to invest in this process if they determine you have a claim. A consult is confidential and free, so you have nothing to lose but your time.
