RECOMMENDATION:
Recommended Action
COMMUNITY COUNCIL: APPROVAL with CONDITIONS
PLANNING COMMISSION: APPROVAL CONDITIONAL
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 Staff’s recommended conditions”.
PLANNING COMMISSION VOTE: Approval with Conditions 9-0-0. A. Atkins moved, J. Johnson seconded for approval as recommended and conditioned by Staff.
COMMUNITY COUNCIL VOTE/RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0-0), with the following conditions: Limit number of training sessions to 15 per week; No more than 2 clients per session; and one (1) trainer on site.
