Pool company using a multifamily garage for storage

Hi,

I'm having trouble finding results on the legality of my situation. I inherited a multifamily house from my father in Connecticut.

He had an arrangement with a pool guy to use the annexed garage as storage for equipment, chemicals and materials.

Originally it was just 2 vans that would stop by in the early morning (7am). But his company has now grown to about 6 vans and his team shows up periodically as early as 5:45am. Blocking tenants cars, chatting it up in the driveway, slamming van doors, just sort of growing out of hand.

The extra income is nice, but am I at legal risk with zoning? Could I just state that he needs to show up later in the morning? Or just kick him out? I've been having trouble finding anything online regarding zoning laws or commercial storage in a residential property.

I'll call the city on Monday but wanted to be proactive and see if anyone any insights here.

Thanks!
