Hazardous Materials <br />No hazardous material will be allowed in conjunction with a home occupation other than what any <br />household purchases for private consumption. A resident could buy chemicals for lawn maintenance <br />or for pest control, but a home occupation could not have large quantities of these materials in drums <br />in a residence. This will reduce the risk for potential fires and storage of large amounts of hazardous <br />materials in private residences. <br />Home Parties <br />The proposed ordinance limits the number of home parties or demonstrations that can occur in a <br />dwelling unit. This will prevent distributors from having ongoing sales and parties in their home <br />which could have a ne£''tive impact on the residential character of their neighborhood. <br />Prohibited Occupations <br />The proposed ordinance provides a use of occupations that due to their nature, size, or impact, are <br />prohibited. Staff has asked the City Attorney to review whether limiting firearms is allowed. There <br />are four firearms dealers in Orono. <br />Disability Provision <br />The proposed ordinance allows a disabled person who may want to engage in a home o-cupation but <br />is unable to comply with all the requirements to request special consideration to waive one or more <br />of the restrictions. <br />Enforcement <br />The proposed ordinance establishes a process for addressing violations within a set period of time. <br />Staff has asked the City Attorney to review this section to determine if the proposed amendment is <br />consisted with data privacy requirements regarding reporting violations. <br />i <br />' <br />■
