Home Occupation Ordinance <br />September 17,2002 <br />Page 3 <br />Subd. 2 - A statement that Level 2 Home Occupations are required to be annually licensed. <br />Subd. 3 • A long list of the regulations or ‘p^ormance standards’ with which all home <br />occupations shall comply. <br />Subd. 4 - A list of ’prohibit^’ home occupations, which would not be allowed with or <br />without a license. <br />Subd. 5 • Allows City to waive one or more requirements if necessary to accommodate a <br />disabled person. <br />Subd. 6 - Requires all existing home occupations to be brought into compliance within one <br />year. Since home occupations have been regulated by licensing in the past, the one <br />year limit means that any current licenses will be allowed to continue to expiration <br />without having to comply (current licenses expire September 30, 2002). A home <br />occupation that was not licensed in the past but should have been, would presumably <br />have no legal status in which to claim this is an amortization. <br />Sccthm S. Revises Section 10.61 regarding signage for home occupation uses. <br />Section 6 . (Ordinance will become effective as soon as it is published in the official newsp^r). <br />Brief Review of Selected Perfominnce Standards / Prohibitions <br />Employees .

Personal vehicles of employees <br />working off the premises shall be parked within a building or shall be fully screened <br />from the street and from adjoining properties. <br />4) Domestic employees shall not be considered employees of the home occupation. <br />Note that home occupations with employed persons are considered as a Level 2 Hime Occupation <br />and will require licensing.
