CC Regular Session <br />Meeting Date: 01 / 11 /2022 <br />Submitted For: Bria Raines, Community Development <br />By: Bria Raines, Community Development <br />Information <br />7.5. <br />Title: <br />Introduce Ordinance #22-06 Amending City Code Chapter 117, Sections 1 and 351 Regarding Home Occupations <br />Purpose/Background: <br />Ordinance #22-06 (formerly #21-20) Amending City Code Chapter 117, Sections 1 and 351 Regarding Home <br />Occupations. The revised sections regarding Home Occupations will address all business types conducted on a <br />residential property. <br />This change is very minor and more administrative in nature. <br />Meetings <br />• November 18, 2021: A public hearing was held at the Planning Commission. Planning Commission members <br />approved motion to introduce ordinance to City Council. <br />• December 14, 2021: Staff presented ordinance to City Council work session for feedback prior to <br />introduction. <br />Based on feedback from the December 14, 2021 City Council Work Session, Staff has included a section to cover <br />minor home occupations that encourage the arts such as the Fargo, South Dakota City Code. Research of peer <br />communities and the Fargo city code home occupation section has been attached as well. <br />Notification: <br />This meeting does not require a public notice. <br />The Public Hearing Notice for the November 18, 2021 Planning Commission meeting, was advertised in the Anoka <br />County Union -Herald, the City's Official Newsletter. <br />Observations/Alternatives: <br />The existing definition does not address all types of home occupations that are seen in the City of Ramsey. This <br />revision to the Ramsey City Code will help Staff enforce standards for all types of home occupations. <br />Funding Source: <br />Staff is handling this as part of normal duties. <br />Recommendation: <br />The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council adopt Ordinance #22-06 (formerly #21-20) <br />Amending City Code Chapter 117, Sections 1 and 351 Regarding Home Occupations. <br />Action: <br />Motion to introduce Ordinance #22-06 (formerly #21-20) Amending City Code Chapter 117, Sections 1 and 351 <br />Regarding Home Occupations. <br />
