CHAPTER 9.50 HOME OCCUPATION PERMITS

A. Purpose: The purpose of this chapter is to establish regulations allowing for the operation of certain business activities in single- and multi-family residential neighborhoods. The standards and requirements are intended to ensure that home occupation operations do not alter the character of any residential neighborhood, or create impacts or activities that are not typically and commonly associated with residential neighborhoods. It is the intent of this chapter to allow for commercial uses that are accessory and incidental to the primary purpose of residential zones, which is that of providing a habitable dwelling for the owner or occupant as the primary use of the residential dwelling unit.

B. Applicability: The provisions in this chapter shall apply to home occupations as defined in article 7, "Definitions", of this title and where allowed in compliance within this article 3 and the following standards. A home occupation shall only be allowed as an accessory use on a parcel with a legal residential dwelling unit.

In addition, the operator of the home occupation shall procure a business registration in compliance with title 5, chapter 5.20, "Business Registration Certificate", of this code, including home occupations that are exempt from permitting.

1. Class I, Exempt From Permitting:

a. Class I home occupations shall have no impact on the neighborhood in which they are located. Work is performed exclusively by phone and mail, or over the internet, and/or the activity is limited so that there are no impacts on the neighborhood. Class I home occupations are allowed in any residential zoning district.

These uses include telecommuting and internet or electronic based businesses, or other similar activities that are transparent inside the residential structure, and do not involve customers to the site, employees, or any structural alteration.

In addition, no permit is required for home based businesses where no business activity takes place other than the scheduling of appointments or paperwork, there are no customers received at the residence, the exterior of the property is not modified for the business and there is no outdoor storage of materials or vehicles, except as normally associated with and allowed in a residential area. These business activities include, but are not limited to, contractors, housecleaning, carpet cleaning, mobile car wash or gardeners.

• (1) No customers or clients shall visit the residence.

• (2) All employees shall be members of the resident family and shall reside on the premises.

(5) There shall be no outdoor home occupation activity, and screened outdoor storage of material shall be limited to ten percent (10%) of the lot area.

3. Class III, Notice And Hearing Required:

a. Class III home occupations may have a limited impact on the neighborhood in which they are located but are also slightly more intense than Class II in that they may involve outdoor storage of material and/or outdoor home occupation activities that do not impact the neighborhood. Class III home occupations are permitted in the Rural Living (RL) and Residential-Hillside Reserve (R-HR) Zoning Districts.
