Page 1 of 10 PC Agenda Item – 3A MEMORANDUM DATE: May 3, 2023 TO: Planning Commission Chair and Commissioners FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Planning Case #22-025 – Public Hearing Required Applicant: Kerri Seemann Property Address: 1947 County Road D West Request: Zoning Code Amendment and Conditional Use Permit Requested Action Kerri Seemann (“Applicant”) has submitted an application for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a Class II Accessory Home Occupation at 1947 County Road D West (“Subject Property”). The Applicant is proposing to operate a landscaping nursery as an accessory home occupation on the Subject Property. A home occupation is allowed in residential zoning districts, but a Conditional Use Permit is required as a Class II Accessory Home Occupation when there is an employee not residing in the residence or the delivery of products. A zoning code amendment to Chapter 13 – Zoning Code of Arden Hills City Code is required for this application to strike language that conditions a home occupation to be conducted entirely within the dwelling and that there shall be no exterior evidence of the home occupation. The Applicant is proposing ordinance language be added to allow for a home occupation to be conducted either within a detached accessory structure or exterior of a building. Background 1. Existing Site Conditions: 1947 County Road D West (“Subject Property”) is zoned R-2, Single & Two Family Residential District, and is designated for Low Density Residential Uses in the 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The Subject Property is developed with a single-family residential dwelling and detached garage as well as a second detached accessory shed. All surrounding parcels are also zoned R-2, Single & Two Family Residential District, and designated for Low Density Residential Uses in the 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
