<br />e <br /> <br />900.2~ - HQME OCCUPATIONS <br /> <br />1. Purpose. The purpose of this subsection is to provide a <br />means through the establishment of specific standards and <br />procedures by which home occupations can be conducted in <br />residential neighborhoods withOut jeopardi~ing the residential <br />character or health, safety and general welfare of the <br />surrounding neighborhood. In addition, this subsection is <br />intended to provide a mechanism enabling the distinction between <br />permitted home occupations and conditional or customarily "more <br />sensitive" home occupations, so that permitted home occupations <br />may be allowed through an administrative process rather than a <br />Quasi-Judicial hearing process. <br /> <br />2. Prohibited Activities. No home occupations (permitted or <br />conditional) shall: <br /> <br />A. Const~tute a fire ha~ard to neighboring residences, <br />adversely affect neighboring property values, or constitute <br />a nuisance or otherwise be detrimental to the neighbors <br />because of excessive traffic, noise, glare, odor, electrical <br />interference, vibration, dust and other nuisance or safety <br />hazards. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />B. Adversely impact governmental facilities and services, <br />including roads, sanitary sewer, water, st~rm drainage, <br />garbage service, police and fire. <br /> <br />C.

Permitted Home Occupations. Permitted home occupation <br />permits shall be issued subject to the conditions of this <br />Section, other applicable City Ordinances and State Law.
