RECOMMENDATION:
Recommended Action
COMMUNITY COUNCIL: Approval with Condition
PLANNING COMMISSION: Approval with Staff Recommended Conditions
PLANNING STAFF: Approval with Conditions
STAFF ANALYSIS: The proposed in- home occupation with customer contact should not have any adverse impact on adjacent and surrounding properties. The exterior of the existing single-family residence is not proposed for alterations, therefore remaining compatible with surrounding dwellings in the area. Given that the existing driveway can accommodate off-street parking for clients, there should be no impact on adjacent properties. The proposed use would not create adverse impacts on adjoining properties by way of noise, smoke, odor, dust or vibration. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the Planning and Sustainability Department that the application be, “Approved, subject to the attached conditions”.
PLANNING COMMISSION VOTE: 8-0-0/J. Johnson moved, V. Moore seconded for Approval with Staff's conditions.
COMMUNITY COUNCIL VOTE/RECOMMENDATION: 9-0-1/Approval to add a driveway to accommodate at least 2 cars.
