French term
concorder avec les dispositions de l'immeuble
Non-PRO
French to English
Law/Patents
Real Estate
Terms of a lease
This is from a commercial lease, in the clause explaining the status of the terms and conditions, and says that 'elles n'auront leur valeur qu'autant qu'elles peuvent concorder avec les dispositions de l'immeuble ou du local loué ou s'appliquer à des services ou éléments d'équipement qui y sont ou y seront installés'
Given that services and equipment are mentioned, I am not sure whether 'dispositions' relates to the rules of the building or the physical layout. The plural seems to imply rules, but there are some mistakes in the document.

I've never seen disposition in the plural to mean layouts - only in the sing. Also, as this is a single property complex, how - logically - could it have more than one layout?

conform to the ARRANGEMENTS of the building might be a fudge solution.

it refers to the physical layout, but it might help to have the sentence that precedes in order to know precisely what they mean by "elles", etc.
Comment: "Thanks for the answer. There was a difference of opinion, so I decided to go with the fudge solution of 'arrangements' suggested by Counsel."
