Action Requested
Open the public hearing, take comments, and continue the public hearing
until the September 27, 2022, Planning Commission meeting.
Background/Discussion
The applicant is seeking a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to operate a two-
station hair salon in her existing attached garage. The attached garage is the
only garage on the property and converting it to a salon will make the
property non-conforming as the ordinance requires residential homes to have
a minimum 440 sq. ft. (20x22) garage.
The city council cannot approve a CUP that makes a property non-
conforming. To have the property maintain conformance, a new
appropriately sized garage will need to be built and receive a certificate of
occupancy prior to the applicant being able to operate the salon in the
existing converted garage space.
As a result of this, the city is postponing action to allow the applicant to
determine how they want to proceed.
Public Hearing
Staff received a letter informing the city the property owner is already
operating a business (Dellwo Brothers Construction) from the property. If
any of this business is occurring outside of the dwelling unit, a CUP would
also be required for that business.
