Staff Recommendation
DENY the request for an office for a janitorial business as a home occupation at this location in the R-1 zone.
This home occupation is not appropriate in the interior of a neighborhood, especially at the end of a cul-de-sac, because of the potential for extra traffic generation. The type of business proposed has the potential to grow to a size that would not be able to meet the home occupation requirements. The business listed, an office for a janitorial business, is not similar to any item listed as a permitted home occupation by the zoning ordinance and it is staff's position that the use should not be deemed appropriate as a home occupation by the Planning Commission. The applicant has stated that the owners intend to live in the house only part time for awhile, which does not meet the intent of the zoning ordinance.
