Her narrative provided an example of restrictive <br />language for the Planning Commission to consider that would establish certain prohibited uses to <br />reduce the risk of potential problems that could arise with allowing business activity outside of the <br />home. <br /> <br />Currently, the city code requires all home occupations to be conducted entirely within the dwelling <br />and have no exterior evidence of the home occupation. In a review of home occupations <br />ordinances for several adjacent communities, staff found there were a handful that allowed the <br />business activity to be conducted in a detached accessory building, but found no examples that <br />allowed for exterior evidence. Staff has prepared text amendments based on the Applicant’s <br />narrative as well as a few other text amendment considerations for Section 1325.02, Subd. 3 - <br />Home Occupations. <br /> <br />Applicant’s Narrative: <br />1) Amend Section 1325.02, Subd. 3.
