One needs to be very specifically careful in how something is worded. Obviously based on your words above they have concluded you are trying to make the garage a livable area. Which is not your intent.
Instead of focusing on the needs of your body needing it to be more comfortable, just modify the request to moderate the garage temperature to prevent heat and cold damage to your collectible trains/vintage cars, etc.
Hence eliminating the ambiguity potential of you creating a more livable space.
Or any other similar presentation other than creature comfort. I have friends that have their garages air conditioned that house vintage automobiles. Yes it is a valid position of preservation need.
Clerks and the like can only go by what it is they hear from the requestor!!

..... If worse comes to worse, could you possibly just put a small window unit in the garage window. Hopefully no one would have a problem with that. No one meaning the neighbors.
