reasonable use

Read a random definition: jurisdictional limits

A quick definition of reasonable use:

Reasonable use refers to the appropriate and fair use of one's property that does not unreasonably interfere with another person's use of their property. It means using something for its intended purpose for a long time, as opposed to temporary or occasional use. There are different types of uses, such as beneficial use, collateral use, and public use. Some uses are dependent on or affiliated with the land's primary use, while others are impermissible under current zoning restrictions but allowed because they existed lawfully before the restrictions took effect. Overall, reasonable use means using something in a way that is fair and respectful to others.

A more thorough explanation:

Reasonable use refers to the appropriate use of one's property that does not unreasonably interfere with another person's use of their property. For example, playing loud music at a reasonable volume during the day is considered reasonable use, but playing loud music late at night that disturbs the neighbors is not.

Another example of reasonable use is the right to use property and all that makes it desirable or habitable, such as light, air, and access, even if someone else owns the legal title to the property.

Overall, reasonable use is about balancing the rights of property owners to use their property as they see fit with the rights of others to enjoy their own property without unreasonable interference.

I’m sure you’ll get good merit aid though. Look at Michigan’s 509 report. They’re very generous.

How long can I delay sending my fall grades if they hurt my GPA? I’m still waiting on decisions and ideally I’m hoping they decide BEFORE seeing my new grades

Honestly you could just wait until someone actually asks for your fall grades. Who knows.
