Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Changes in condo fee if a unit is expanded?

[Chris ScottHanson (cscotthanson]

David,

Note the headroom in the new space will effect how much of it counts a 
habitable space.  In most places an average 7 foot ceiling height with a 
minimum of 5 feet is what would count as habitable.
