A change of use is required in a building or part thereof when the use of the building or part thereof changes.<\/p>\n

When a building permit is issued, the spaces are classified according to their use, e.g., residence, office, warehouse, store, etc. When the use of the building or space is about to change, e.g., from residence to store, then this change is classified as a change of use.<\/p>\n

A change of use is permitted only if the new use is provided for in the relevant urban planning provisions.<\/p>\n

The change requires the issuance of a Building Permit and updating of the Building Identity. In any other case, the construction is considered arbitrary.<\/p>\n

The change of use may be made in buildings legally existing within an approved plan or settlement, in accordance with the applicable street plan, the applicable land uses of the area, and regardless of any change in other building conditions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
