First Reading of Ordinance No. 01-10, amending the Zoning Ordinance related to home <br /> 77 occupations—City Planner Bengtson explained the proposed amendment to the city's zoning <br /> 78 regulations (and fee schedule) will serve to update regulations on home occupations in a way that <br /> 79 doesn't dissuade individuals from having home businesses but protects the area around them. A <br /> 80 three-tiered system is being proposed as follows: i) no permit required; ii) an administration permit <br /> 81 required; or iii)requirement for a conditional use permit. Staff feels that the new ordinance would <br /> 82 provide greater business opportunity since the current regulations include more limitations (i.e. cannot <br /> 83 use a garage at all and more employee restrictions). The proposed fee, for situations requiring it, is <br /> 84 $25. Mr. Bengtson added that the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing on the changes <br /> 85 and ultimately recommended approval. <br /> 86 <br /> 87 Council Member O'Donnell moved to dispense with full reading of the ordinance. Council Member <br /> 88 Gallup seconded the motion. Motion carried on a unanimous voice vote. <br /> 89 <br /> 2 <br />
