Not where I really want to be
Did anyone ever have a situation from litigation between a municipality and a property owner that was so old, it referenced using codes that were outdated and non-conforming with current state codes?

How can decades old settlement agreement override current codes?
 
That is what attorneys are for.

And if I understand the question,,,

There was an agreement, that included the city signing on, that a building was allowed to meet a code back when, and still today??

The only thing I can see that might change that, is addition to the building or a distinct life safety problem.
