It would surprise me, actually, if they thought about the copyright of the
building and solved the problem in time, smoothly. I've talked to many
officials in EU, states, municipalities, etc, and whenever they state
something about copyright, it is usually just lorem ipsum, they have no
idea what they are talking about. Any kind of explanation will have to
start from the basics and it will take a  lot of time. There are exceptions
but they're truly rare, especially when it concerns FoP.
