Has anybody received any resistance from city officials/zoning law about a
proposed coworking space falling under the same zoning rules as a "cyber
café?" I've been told by someone else who tried to open a space in my city
that he ran into that problem and since the city doesn't allow cyber café
You could pitch it as a casual shared office space, people bring there own
computers, they have actual workspaces, they are doing work for their
companies, not really cyber cafe where people pay per minute to use the
internet.

IANAL, but if a government entity is regulating a class of activities,
doesn't it (theoretically) have to explicitly define that class?
Where is the law in your jurisdiction that defines 'cyber caf

I would be very wary of believing that the original information is true. As

rather than get secondhand info.
If all else fails, use the term incubator a few times in non-specific ways.
The economic development departments love a business that will bring more

Hi there - I think the original information you received was flawed.
Usually for zoning purposes you're looking at office, retail, light
industrial - typically they won't get so granular, at least not in my
