DeNAEYER HOME OCCUPATION: Written request for home occupation
read. John MacMartin's discussion was negative - warehousing,
trouble with neighbors, commercial facilities exist, display,
traffic. Discussion revealed that Board recommends to Council
desirability of approval or disapproval. Right now this business
is an avocation. The main occupation of Mr. DeNaeyer is truck
driver. Mrs. DeNayer stated that panels are mostly ordered and
no display exists on site.
Motion from Jim Seaton, second from Otto Preikszas, to
recommend approval of this home occupation to the City Council.
Discussion. John MacMartin stated this is more truly a
commercial enterprise in competition with commercial areas.
Gerald Shay pointed out we are in a gray area which may in the
future create problems about future requests. Joe Bradley suggests
that garage space in a commercial area could be leased and orders
taken on a home phone. Mr. Bradley said we would be setting a
precedent and this board should protect integrity of residential
areas.
Motion failed.
Motion from Joe Bradley, second from Gerald Shay, to
recommend that the request be disapproved. Motion carried, with
Debbie Ketterling abstaining due to being a neighbor.
