2. Will be consistent with the comprehensive plan.
<br />The property is guided Mixed Residential which consists of neighborhoods with multiple housing types,
<br />including single-family detached, townhomes, duplexes, and small-scale multi-family buildings. Residential
<br />uses allow for home occupations, with some uses requiring a CUP providing due process for the
<br />neighbors. The request is consistent with the comprehensive plan.
<br />
<br />Staff does not see a need to impose specific conditions to satisfy this standard.
<br />
<br />3. Will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding vacant property.
<br />The subject parcel is in the older part of the downtown area and there is no vacant property in the area.
<br />The use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding vacant
<br />property.
<br />
<br />Staff does not see a need to impose specific conditions to satisfy this standard.
<br />
<br />4. Will be served adequately by and will not adversely affect essential public facilities and services including streets, police and fire
<br />protection, drainage, refuse disposal, water and sewer systems, parks and schools; and will not, in particular, create traffic
<br />congestion or interference with traffic on adjacent and neighboring public thoroughfares.
<br />The use will be served adequately by and will not adversely affect essential public facilities and services
<br />including streets, police and fire protection, drainage, refuse disposal, water and sewer systems, parks and
<br />schools; and will not, in particular, create traffic congestion or interference with traffic on adjacent and
<br />neighboring public thoroughfares.
<br />
<br />The ordinance limits driveway widths at the front property line to 30-feet wide. Staff does not see a need
<br />to impose specific conditions to satisfy this standard.
<br />
<br />5. Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any
<br />persons or property because of excessive traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare, odors, dust or vibrations.
<br />Traffic concerns are frequently raised during land use requests like this, and staff is recommending that
<br />four parking stalls (2 current customers + 2 waiting customers) be provided onsite to ensure the use will
<br />not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation that will be
<br />detrimental to any persons or property because of excessive traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare, odors, dust,
<br />or vibrations. Again, chemical and ventilation concerns would be addressed through the permitting
<br />process.
<br />
<br />Staff does not see a need to impose specific conditions, that already have not been, to satisfy this standard.
<br />
<br />6. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature of major importance.
<br />As the request is proposed in an existing structure, the use will not result in the destruction, loss or damage
<br />of a natural, scenic or historic feature of major importance.
<br />
<br />Staff does not see a need to impose specific conditions to satisfy this standard.
<br />
<br />7. Will fully comply with all other requirements of this Code, including any applicable requirements and standards for the
<br />issuance of a license or permit to establish and operate the proposed use in the city.
<br />Again, while this application is a home occupation in a residential zone, the use operates no differently
<br />than a commercial business in a commercial zone. The building code does not differentiate between a
<br />business operating in a residential zone to one being run in a commercial zone.
