PODUNK FARMS COUNSELING CENTER-
COHEN MAJOR HOME OCCUPATION
1. Request for a 5-year approval for a major home occupation under
Section 4.8 to open a counseling center at property located at 99 Main
Street, A-40 zone.
2. The applicant has indicated that the scope of the services provided would
include marriage, family, individual, and substance abuse counseling.
Office hours would include weeknights from 7 — 9PM; Saturdays from
10 —12 a.m., and Sundays from 12- 2PM (total of 14 hours a week).
3. The applicant has provided two alternatives. She has noted that her
preference would be to use an existing accessory building that was
constructed in 1989 for agricultural purposes, located about 200 feet
from the road. Approximately 900 sq ft of the interior would be
remodeled to create two offices and a waiting area. You have a sketch
showing the layout in your packet. The plumbing already exists for a
bathroom and the applicant indicated the septic system was designed to
accommodate this bathroom.
4. The applicant has indicated that she does not expect more than one
vehicle on site at a time, and that there is adequate parking on-site to
accommodate parking needs. If the outbuilding is used, she has
indicated that the driveway to the north of the existing barn would be
used. A site visit found the driveway to be somewhat in disrepair. The
applicant may need to improve the drive and clean up debris on site to
make the access safe. Staff wold recommend the Commission hold this
hearing open and visit the site prior to approving the outbuilding for
office use.
5. The applicant's alternate proposal is to use an existing 150 sq ft room in
the front of the house as an office area. A sketch of that floor plan is also
included in your information package. The total area of the house is over
3,000 sq ft. Parking would be on the side of the house in the main drive.
This application appears to meet the physical criteria for the home
occupation with respect to square footage.
6. The reasons for requiring PZC approval are to ensure that:
r t�_ f P 2 el., tu_ to a, 11 It C/C_ f' d N (off
� µ4—
• The home occupation is clearly secondary to the use of the building
for dwelling purposes;
• the home occupation is compatible with other permitted residential
uses in the residential district;
• the residential character of the dwelling and the neighborhood are
maintained and preserved; and
• all residents have freedom from excessive noise, excessive traffic,
nuisances, fire hazards, offensive odors and pollutants, and other
possible effects of commercial uses being conducted in residential
areas.
7. Performance criteria that must be met include:
• Maximum of 25% of the floor area can be used for the occupation;
• Occupation cannot be visible from the outside of the dwelling unit;
• No entrance or exit may be added solely for the occupation;
• no more than one non-resident employee is allowed -
• the occupation cannot create a volume of passenger or commercial
traffic that is inconsistent with the normal level of traffic on the street
• all parking needs must be met on site
• and the Commission may require screening of additional parking
from the street and from adjacent residential properties.
8. The applicant is not proposing to have any employees.
9. A sign is proposed with the application. The regulations allow up to a
two square foot sign.
10.If this application is approved, the applicant will complete a home
occupation permit form, which contains an acknowledgment that the
applicant will abide by the criteria contained in the zoning regulations.
The applicant would also be required to return to this Commission upon
expiration of the 5-year permit period.
11.If this application is approved for the outbuilding, the Planning Dept.
recommends that the driveway access be improved.
