City Ordinance: City ordinances indicate that beauty parlors with one operator, which see customers by appointment only are uses allowed by conditional use permit in the R-l Zoning District. The ordinance also indicates that beauty shops must meet the restrictions outlined in the home occupation section of the code which limits the home occupation to one room in the principal dwelling, prohibits the employment of any persons not residing in the residence, and prohibits retail or wholesale product sales on site.
