Change Shopping Destination to Residential Destination

Questioner

What do I need to do to change the retail destination of a property to residential destination?

Lawyer

You should contact the mayor and aldermen of your municipality and request a change of use. This can usually be done by applying for an environmental permit for deviating use. Incidentally, the mayor and aldermen do not have to cooperate and you will have to be able to clearly motivate why the change of use is not in conflict with good spatial planning.
