** We are zoned C1-2 according to the city of chicago data portal. Are we subject to http://www.cityofchicago.org/content/dam/city/depts/bacp/general/Shared_Kitchen_Fact_Sheet_v.11.14.12.pdf or similar rules if we construct a kitchen? We do not intend to allow members to sell foods that they produce in the space; this would clearly subject us to significant overhead.
