I can't replicate this.

Please try the following

Close the game
Rename Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4_Old
Start the game. All your content will be gone now as the game created a new folder. All your saves/.. is still in the old folder so not to worry
Start a new save game
Check if you still have the error
Report back with your results for further steps on how to get your stuff back.

I had the same problem today. Added a chess table to the premade karaoke bar at San Myshuno Fashion District, all my household members "don't have permission to use this". The problem doesn't occur when a sim travels to a venue that already has a chess table (I just tested that with the affected family and then again in an older save with other sims - no issue in either case.)

  @EnkiSchmidt To clarify, I added the chess table I wasn't allowed to use while my sims were at the venue.
