Overview
e
The applicant is requesting a conditional use permit to operate his
landscaping business from his home. The property is located on the south
side of County Road 1, just west of the intersection of County Roads 1 and 33.
The site is 2.67 acres and contains the applicant's house and a 40' X 50' pole
building. The house and pole building are located near the rear of the lot.
Approximately half of the lot is encumbered with a 240 foot wide NSP
easement across the center portion of the lot. There is a neighbor directly

adjacent to the east and a house located across County Road 33 that will
have a clear view of the property and the area to be utilized for the
landscaping business. The properties to the west and south will be screened
by either existing woods or a hill. There is an existing row of evergreens
planted along the east property line.
The pole building will be used for storage of equipment. An outdoor storage
area is proposed along the east side of the pole building. Any outdoor storage
of materials would have to be completely screen from adjacent properties and
the street. A stockade fence, along with landscaping, could be use to screen
the proposed storage area. All equipment will have to be stored within the
pole building. All outdoor storage should comply with the setback
requirements for accessory structures.
The area between the house and the street is proposed to be used as growing
area for ornamental and shade trees. The applicant should check with NSP
to see what type of restrictions are involved with planting trees within their
easement. The applicant has indicated that some of the trees planted in the
growing areas will be left to mature and provide a screen.
.
The applicant has also indicated he would like to conduct retail sales from
May 1st to July 1st. Retail sales are not usually associated with home
occupations unless they are clearly incidental to the services provided in the
dwelling. An example of typical retail sales is the sale of a line of shampoo
and hair treatments incidental to a home hair salon.
The applicant is also proposing an 16 square foot freestanding sign. The
ordinance allows only a 2 square foot wall sign. The proposed freestanding
will not be allowed.
Planning Commission Meeting
At the March 23rd Planning Commission meeting one neighbor spoke at the
public hearing. That person did not want to see retail sales as part of this
home occupation permit. The Planning Commission also had reservations
about retail sales at this site and recommended that retail sales not be
allowed.
Recommendation
.
The Planning Commission recommended the City Council approve the
request for a conditional use permit to allow a landscaping business as a
home occupation with the following conditions:
