Re: 2009 Home Occupation Permit
Dear Tony& Kim:
Thank you for submitting your application for a 2009 Home Occupation Permit for your drywall home
based business. Please note that the City defines a Home Occupation as, ':.. any occupation or
profession engaged in by the occupant of a residential dwelling unit, which is clearly incidental and
secondary to the residential use of the premises and does not change the character of said premises".
On page 4 of your application,you noted that a 12'x 18'accessory building is required as part of this
business. In light of your response, I require clarification as to where you will be storing the
equipment/items used in conjunction with the drywall business at the residential address. Please be
as specific as you can so that it is clear whether or not you will be storing items within an existing
garage,shed or off site and if any new construction is required as part of storage for these items.
With the above in mind, please find enclosed herewith and returned to you,your application,
application fee and copy of Home Occupation Ordinance 401.15.M. so that you may provide
equipment storage clarification.
I appreciate your immediate attention to this and ask that you resubmit your application with the
clarification information prior to December 18,2008.
If you have any questions, please contact me immediately.
Sincerely,
Juli ultman
