Those which do not meet one or more of the specified performance standards. <br /> e. Those which generate excessive traffic under the standards of subsection (d)(13)of this <br /> section. <br /> In cases where it is unclear whether a home occupation should be classified as level 1 or level 2, the zoning <br /> administrator shall make such a determination subject to city council confirmation if requested by the operator of <br /> the home occupation. <br /> (b) Conformance required. All existing home occupations shall be brought into conformity with this <br /> section within one year of the adoption of the ordinance from which this section is derived. <br /> (c) License required for level 2 home occupations.
