Yes I have heard of that. It didn’t apply here. They would not be legally habitable for those purposes UNTIL those changes are made. The buildings are not currently designed for that purpose. We have these housing codes for a reason.
A community can allow people who are rehabbing a building to live on site while improvements are being made.
A homeless person would much rather live in a building without water and power then have to sleep in an open park, or even a shelter where they are cohabiting with mentally ill folk.
Since we’d be changing laws to let people live there in the first place, making other changes would be a minor consideration.
Sure, they could. Then a fire happens, and that community starts pointing fingers at how all these people died. Surely, someone should have prevented that…
Do you not understand why we have fire codes for buildings, residential or otherwise?
Things catch fire. It happens. It’s even more likely if major renovations are occurring, between flammable paint fumes, potentially exposed wiring, power tools strewn around…
Actually try to think through your own proposals for a second before vomiting them into the universe.
This entire conversation has been about using these houses, instead of as single residence, but multi-“family” housing. They are move in ready AS SINGLE RESIDENCES, NOT the things we’ve been talking about this entire time. Holy shit, how dumb are you?

Now you’re just pulling things out of thin air.
What’s keeping people from having fire extinguishers on hand? Why would they need open fires in the first place?
Might as well bring in a Godzilla attack.
Who the fuck said anything about open fires?

Literally laughing out loud when I read that.
Because you know you won’t do that?

Many of these are in move in condition.
Dude. How bad are your literacy skills?

Of course! Because there’s no way I could be laughing at you. Everyone admires and respects you and considers you a shining beacon of rationality!
