Home Occupations Zoning Amendment - An amendment to Chapter 18.66 of the City of Auburn Zoning Code relating to the regulation of Home Occupations in residential zones. Anastasia Hart, 206 "H" Street S.E., spoke in favor of the zoning code amendment because it would allow home boutiques. Doris Driscoll, 2905 22nd Street S.E., spoke in opposition of the amendment and presented a petition of 27 signatures opposing the amendment because they did not want to have to buy a business license for garage sales. MOTION by Hitchcock, SECOND by Kurle, to close the public hearing. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. Kurle asked for clarification on requirements of a busi- ness license. Dugan explained the amendment does not impose a business license; that it deals only with land use. He noted this amendment broadens the home occupa- tion uses. As the code presently stands home boutiques, garages sales and similar activites would not be allowed in residential zones. Dugan stated he was not prepared to address the issue of business license requirements. ' The Council expressed concern over the possible necessity of having to have a business license for a garage sale and if the amendment would affect the requirement for a business license.
