CITY OF CENTERVILLEREQUEST <br />FOR ACTION <br />Agenda Item # Department: RequestedMeetingDate: <br />August 4, 2020 <br />Planning and Zoning <br />VII.2 <br />TITLE OF ISSUE: <br />Ordinance Review - Home Occupations (auto repair) <br />BACKGROUND AND SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION: <br />The city has recently heard complaints on at least two homes where it appears an auto repair shop is being run <br />out of the garage of a residential home. This is legal under our current code as long as "All business activities <br />and storage shall take place within the structure", among other requirements (see attached code section). Some <br />of the difficulties with enforcing this has been that it is difficult to ascertain which vehicles on a driveway are <br />there for storage related to the business and which are for personal use. Additionally, these businesses, tend to <br />have a lot of people and vehicles coming and going from them. While the amount of trips in and out does not <br />cause a traffic problem as might be defined by engineering guidelines, it can disrupt the general peace and <br />decorum of the neighborhood. <br />If the commission feels that this subject is worth further discussion a public hearing could be scheduled. <br />COST AND SOURCE(S) OF FUNDING: <br />N/A <br />REQUESTED ACTION: <br />For discussion only. No formal action requested at this time. <br />SUPPORTED DOCUMENTS ATTACHED <br />Motion By: ____________________________________ <br /> Resolution Ordinance Contract Minutes Plan Map <br />Second By: ____________________________________ <br />X <br />Vote Record: Aye Nay <br /> _____ _____ <br />Other (specify) ____________ <br /> _____ _____ <br /> _____ _____ <br />_______________________________________________________________ <br /> _____ _____ <br /> _____ ____________________________________________________________________ <br /> _____ <br />_____ <br /> _____ <br />_____ <br />Refer to: _________________________________ <br /> Tabled Until: ______________________________ <br />Consent <br /> Other: ___________________________________ <br /> Regular <br /> <br />
