The following additional regulations apply to General home occupations.
A. Hours. Customers may visit the site only during the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.
B. Nonresident Employees.
One nonresident employee is allowed with a General home occupation provided no customers come to the site. Home occupations that have customers coming to the site are not allowed to have nonresident employees. For the purpose of this section, the term "nonresident employee" includes an employee, business partner, co-owner, or other person affiliated with the home occupation, who does not live at the site, but who visits the site as part of the home occupation. Adjustments or variances to this regulation are prohibited.
C. Customers. Only eight customers or clients may visit the site in a day.
D. Retail Sales. Retail sales of goods must be entirely accessory to any services provided on the site (such as sheet music sold to music students).
(Ord. 170-04. Passed 3-23-04.)
A. Purpose. Permits for General home occupations must be obtained from the Commissioner of Building Inspection prior to their establishment. The permit requirements are intended to ensure:
1. That the applicant is aware of the provisions of this Zoning Code governing home occupations;
2. That the City has all information necessary to evaluate whether the proposal initially meets and continues to meet Zoning Code regulations; and
3. That the distribution and location of General home occupations is known.
B. Procedure. A home occupation permit for General home occupations will be issued by the Commissioner of Building Inspection for a 2-year period. It is the responsibility of the applicant to obtain the permit every 2 years. The review process requires the applicant to submit an affidavit pledging agreement with these conditions and documentation that the proposal is a General home occupation. The permit is tied to the applicant and not to the lot occupied by the home occupation; permits are not transferable to other sites or other operators.
C. Revocation. A General home occupation permit may be revoked for failure to comply with the regulations of this section. When a General home occupation permit has been revoked, a new General home occupation permit will not be issued to the applicant or other persons residing with the applicant for 2 years.
