- Did the inspector accurately identify how the space was being used on the cited date?
- Was the cited space actually occupied as alleged, or were the observed beds, kitchens, locks or partitions consistent with another lawful use?
- Is there an approved filing or historical record supporting the present use?
Evidence that may matter
- Certificate of Occupancy / Schedule of Occupancy and approved plans
- Historic occupancy records, permits and prior approved layouts
- Dated photographs and floor plans

Hearing issues to verify
- Is the cited zoning district/use classification correct for this lot?
- Was the alleged use actually occurring on the issue date?
- Is there a prior BSA/CPC/DOB approval, variance or grandfathered condition relevant to the charge?
Evidence that may matter
- Zoning map and ZOLA/property records
- Certificate of Occupancy / approved plans
- Survey or parking layout
- Prior approvals, variances, permits and dated photographs
Case-specific next step
For this property, the first paid review should reconcile the 4 October summons records against the current OATH/DOB record, identify which alleged conditions remain open, and separate the hearing defense from the DOB correction / certification work. That prevents paying for correction work that does not address the actual charge—or appearing at OATH without the documents needed for the cited condition.
