The residence is located at the northeast corner of Emerson Lane (formerly 692 Avenue North) and Emerson Avenue North. It is bounded by single-family homes on the north and east, by Emerson Lane on the south and by Emerson Avenue North on the west. The Lutheran Church of the Master is located across Emerson Avenue North to the west and a 7-unit apartment building is located across Emerson Lane to the south. The lot in question is zoned R1 and small engine repair is a special home occupation under the City's Zoning Ordinance. The applicant has submitted a letter (attached) in which he describes the proposed home occupation. He states that the layout of the garage on the lot and a 6' high basket -weave fence will help reduce noise impact. He proposes hours of operation to be limited as follows: Weekdays: 9:00 a.m. to sunset Saturday: 10:00 a.m. to sunset Sunday: 12:00 noon to 6:00 p.m. He stresses that the home occupation i.s a part-time operation. The engines worked on would include lawn mowers, garden equipment and snow -throwers. No outboard motors, motorcycles, or other recreational vehicles would be worked on. Mr. Knutson states that many of the pickups and deliveries will be done by himself and that traffic concerning the home occupation would be relatively few. Mr. Knutson also explains that he intends no retail sales; that special equipment would consist of a sharpening unit for lawn mower blades; that no more than half the garage would be used for the business; and that he would be the only person employed in the home occupation. (It should be noted that Sanver Knutson is not the owner of the premises, but the son of Vernon Knutson, the owner). Our records indicate that 10 repair -related home occupation special use permits have been sought in the past 15 years. All have been granted. Of primary concern with this application is the fact that the applicant's garage is actually located closer to the neighbor's residence at 6920 Emerson Avenue North than to his own residence. We feel the hours of operation are at a maximum, allowing flexibility to the applicant, but perhaps causing an annoyance to the neighbor. We would recommend some diminution of the hours, limiting evening work (or at least running of engines) to no later than 8:00 p.m. The Commission has also sometimes recommended against hours of operation on Sunday, not as a way of imposing a religious observance, but to give the neighborhood an assured, regular break in home occupation activity (and Sunday has seemed to be the best day for this). The Building Official has not yet inspected the premises. Usually, in home occupations of this type, a 5 lb. fire extinguisher is required in the work area. The proposed special use permit is consistent with others granted in the past and approval is recommended subject to the following conditions: 3-31-83 f Application No. 83012 continued 1. The permit is issued to the applicant as operator of the facility and is nontransferable. 2. The permit is subject to all applicable codes, ordinances and regulations and any violation thereof shall be grounds for revocation. 3. The hours of operation shall be from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Saturday. 4. All parking associated with the home occupation shall be off- street on improved space on the property. 5. A 5 lb. fire extinguisher shall be installed in the area of the home occupation prior to the issuance of the permit. 6. Permit approval is exclusive of all signery which is subject to Chapter 34 of the City Ordinances. 3-31-83 -2- 26 2 ii 3 F- J O .v D Z ;r R } w Q F 'EEW4YJ BLVD.
