January 23, 1979 TO: CITY OF ARCADIA PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: PLANNING DEPARTMENT CASE NO.: T.A. 79-2 PREPARED BY: DONNA L. BUTLER ASSISTANT PLANNER GENERAL INFORMATION APPLICANT: City of Arcadia REQUEST: Text amendment adding a Home Occupation Ordinance to the Arcadia Municipal Code. PROPOSAL The City is proposing a text amendment to allow certain home occupations and home businesses in residential zones. Presently there are many persons in the City that are conducting occupations in their home which are not legally permitted by code. Because these uses are not permitted, the City does not have the authority to license these uses. A rough guesstimate is that there could be as many as 1,000 persons conducting home occupations within their residence. In order to make these uses legal and in order to allow the conducting of certain types of businesses within the City, the Planning Department, at the request of the City Manager, has initiated this text amendment. The following is a brief summary of the ordinance: 9285.1. PURPOSE. Outlines the purpose of this new ordinance which is to permit the conducting of certain types of home occupations in residential zones. T.A. 79-2 2 . 9285.2. APPROVAL. Indicates that no person shall engage in a business without an approved and unrevoked or unsuspended home occupation permit. Also denotes that no home occupation permit shall be issued for a property on which there exists a violation of the Arcadia Municipal Code. Each application must be approved by the Planning Department and Fire Department. 9285.3. PREREQUISITE CONDITIONS. This section establishes prerequisite conditions for conducting a home occupation and business (noted below). 9285.3.1. SAME. EMPLOYMENT. Limits employment to members of the household occupying the dwelling. 9285.3.2. SAME. EQUIPMENT AND MACHINERY. . Limits the type of equipment, machinery and material to that customarily found in the home associated with a hobby or avocation not conducted for gain or profit. Requires that such machinery or equipment or material not generate, emit or create noise"dust, vibration, odor, smoke, glare, etc. to any greater or more frequent extent than normally experienced in residential neighborhoods. . 9285.3.3. SAME. SALES. No sale of products or services on the property except by mail or telephone (except as stated in "permitted uses"). 9285.3.4. SAME. PUBLIC CONTACT. No contact with the public on the property except by mail or telephone (except as stated in "permitted uses"). 9285.3.5. SAME. TRAFFIC. No person shall conduct a home occupation that generates pedestrian or vehicular traffic. 9285.3.6. SAME. PICKUP AND DELIVERY. Restricts delivery to or from the premises by any vehicles other than in noncommercial vehicles by the proprietor or resident help of the home occupation. . 9285.3.7. SAME. FLOOR AREA. No more than 200 square feet of the main dwelling may be employed for a home occupation. No required parking or open ground space may be used for the home occupation or storage of equipment and supplies. ' . T.A. 79-2 3 9285.3.8. SAME. ADVERTISING. No commercial advertising or identifying signs shall be allowed on the property. 9285.3.9. SAME. ALTERATION OF DWELLING. The appearance of any structure on the property may not be altered or no person shall conduct a home occupation in a manner that causes a change in the residential character of the property or that of the surrounding neighborhood. 9285.3.10. SAME. UTILITIES. No utilities or community facilities beyond that normal to the use of the property for residential purposes may be allowed. 9285.3.11. SAME. INSPECTION. Stipulates that no person with a permit shall refuse to allow an inspection of the property by the Fire Department or Plan- ning Department. . 9285.3.12. SAME. CONDITIONS OF PERMIT APPROVAL. This permits the Planning Department and Fire Department to approve a home occupation permit subject to any additional conditions that either may deem necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of the Arcadia Municipal Code. 9285.4. PERMITTED USES. This section spells out the types of uses permitted in the zones indicated. (See attached matrix) 9285.5. REVOCATION AND SUSPENSION. This gives the Planning Commission authority to revoke or suspend any home"occupation permit after a public hearing upon at least 10 days', written notice to the permittee upon the finding that there is probable cause that the permittee has committed a violation of any law or a condition of the permit. FEES The Planning Department is recommending a Home Occupation Permit Fee of $25. This fee should be established by resolution of the City Council. . The $25 fee will not adequately cover the initial start-up cost of this new permit. This cost will be relatively high because it will require computer programming by the Business License staff, home inspections by either the City Planning Department or Fire '.' T.A. 79-2 4 . Department and insurmountable paperwork in processing the applications. Once the system is set up, the annual cost of processing these permits will be relatively low. In addition to the Home Occupation Permit, a Business License will be required for those uses being conducted as a business. ANALYSIS This proposed ordinance will establish guidelines and regulations for home occupations and set specific limitations on the types of uses which will be allowed. Planning Department staff and the City Attorney have thoroughly reviewed this ordinance and feel that it is restrictive enough to ensure that the residential character of a neighborhood will not be altered by the implementation of this division. . Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning Department has prepared an initial study for the proposed project. Said initial study did not disclose any substantial or potentially substantial adverse change in any of the physical conditions within the area affected by the project including land, air, water, minerals, flora, fauna, ambient noise, and objects of historical or aesthetic significance. Therefore, a Negative Declaration has been prepared for this project. Before the Planning Commission and City Council take action on this project, the Commission and Council should "move to approve and file the Negative Declaration and find that the project will not have a significant effect on the environment." RECOMMENDATION The Planning Department recommends approval of T.A. 79-2, adding Division 5, Part 8, Chapter 2 of Article IX, entitled "Home Occupations".' The Planning Department also recommends that a fee of ,$25 be established for a Home Occupation Permit. .!\,.fter, taking action on this application, the Planning Commission should direct staff. to prepare a resolution for adoption at its 'next' meeting. The Planning Commission's action shall not be final untii adoption of the resolution. The appeal period for this action commences at the time the Commission adopts the resolution.

Huntington Drive Arcadia, California 91006 Re: T.A. 79-2 Proposed Amendment Allowing Home Occupations in Residential-Zones Honorable Planning Commission: . The Arcadia Board of Realtors has always bee~ opposed to a licensed Real Estate Broker being allowed to operate in any zone other than a commercially zoned area. Article II, Sec. 3 (B) of our by-laws pro'"ides that "such applicant (for membership) shall be so engaged in an o:fice within the jurisdictional boundaries of this Board and ~eeting the re- quirements of all local ordinances and zoning regulations." We have required that all applicants produce a copy of their City business license prior to granti~g membership in the Board and we have relied on the City requiri~g that the Brokers office be located in a proper business zone. Recently the City has been issuing business licenses to Real Estate Brokers in other than business zones which has caused the Board great concern. We feel that this practice does not coincide with the professional image that the Board has been trying to maintain of its membership and for the image of the city. . We request that when considering this text amendment you give consideration to our concerns as expressed above and would recommend that: 1. A Real Estate Broker be specifically required to maintain an office in a business zone in order to receive a City business license 2. Allowing business, of any type, in a residential zone could have a harmful effect on surrounding property values. Respectfully, .6 .
