Special Home Occupation Criteria. Due to the need to have employees visit and UPS deliveries to the residentially zoned site, the applicants are required to receive approval of a special home occupation permit. Approval of a special home occupation permit is subject to the criteria outlined in Section 903.120.E of the Zoning Ordinance. Approval of a special home occupation permit requires that the Planning Commission and City Council make a finding that the special home occupation will be clearly incidental and secondary to the residential use of the property, will not change the residential character of the property and will not result in incompatibility or disturbance to adjacent residential uses. CONCLUSION The applicant's request for a special home occupation permit is generally consistent with the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance. In consideration of the applicant's request for a special home occupation permit, the Planning Commission and City Council must make a finding as to whether the applicant's business, including employee visits and UPS deliveries, is in keeping with the principal residential use of the property and residential character of the area. Should the Planning Commission and City Council make such a finding, our office would recommend that approval of a special home occupation permit be subject to the conditions outlined below. However, should the Planning Commission and City Council determine that the applicant's business operation is detrimental to the residential character of the area, the request for a special home occupation permit must be denied. Employee visits that involve the parking of additional commercial vehicles in excess of 10,000 lbs. GVW at the subject site shall not occur more than five (5) times per calender month. 2.
