Zoning Question - Teardown

Account Closed

Hi all,

I'm looking at purchasing a teardown to develop four condos. The boundary that the house is located in was rezoned from residential into a light commercial zone back in the 80s which allows for condos. For some reason, the city appraisal website still shows the zoning for this house as "single-family residential." Has anyone ever experienced this? Will I have to go through rezoning to build the condos or will the fact that the house is now in a commercial zone allow me to bypass the rezoning process? I know it's different everywhere, but I'm just curious. I've tried phoning the city but it looks like I'll have to go in person.
