Garage apartments and Legalese (property, agent, ordinance, owner)

[ransomedbyfire]

I am considering taking over a property with a garage apartment, but I'm not sure if renting it out is legal. Could someone help me understand my local ordinances on accessory apartments?

My zoning code is R-2 on this map.

Thanks!

a) it's RARE that it is actually and fully legal. VERY VERY rare. Anywhere.
b) ask the existing owner and YOUR agent where the local lines are drawn.
c) if the income is needed to cover a mortgage... pass on the deal.
