REQUEST FOR A ZONING AMENDENT TO CHAPTER 9, <br />SECTION 9.11.04 HOME OCCUAPTIONS <br /> By: Megan Wald, Associate Planner <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />On November 25, 2003, the City Council reviewed the proposed Home Occupation Ordinance. <br />The greater part of the council discussion related to the language that provides the opportunity for a <br />business to operate within an accessory structure on a parcel that does not contain a principal <br />dwelling and whether it is appropriate to provide a ten (10) acre threshold for certain types of <br />business operations. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />According to the discussion that occurred at the City Council meeting; staffrevised the ordinance as <br />follows: <br /> <br /> · Language was added regarding the cancellation and revocation of Home Occupations. <br /> Section 9.11.04 Home Occupations.

Language was added requiring parcels to be combined into one <br /> property identification number when the homestead and accessory structure are located on <br /> two separate parcels. <br /> Sub& 4.
