A. En pisos de edificio ajeno a la actividad

Notes to answerer

Asker: Thanks, Translostlation -- I think I am just not understanding this properly. It says that use is allowed under the following conditions: A) On the building floors not related to the activity B) On the ground floors of the building not related to the activity C) In a building dedicated to the activity in other adjacent buildings, etc. I feel that my translation is off, but I am not sure how to fix it.

8 hrs confidence:

in an exclusive building attached to other unrelated buildings

Explanation:
Ajenos can be tricky - I think unrelated is your best word here.

A. En pisos de edificio ajeno a la actividad= On floors of a building unrelated to the activity

B. etc.

Asker: Thanks FVS, you have been really helpful to me over the past few days!!

14 hrs confidence:

in a building, adjacent to others, which is exclusively for the activity

Explanation:
tricky to word, but this may work. I take the "exclusivo" as meaning the sole use rather than sole building

could also use

a buidling, dedicated to/for this purpose/activity

"adosado" can mean terraced or attached but here I think "adjacent" fits better, as "otros ajenos" are neighbouring buildings
