Home-based businessbylaw to be reviewed

At tomorrows regular meeting, CityCouncil will be reviewing the proposedhome-based business regulations in thedraft Zoning Bylaw, and an item regulat-ing assembly in a private residence.

This review comes out of the incidenton Parker Dr. with on-street parking forA&M Tandem Massage. The home-based

business has since been issued a fine forusing more floor space than permitted in

the bylaw & using more on-site & on-streetparking than allowed for in the bylaw. Ithas also been ordered to cease & desist.

But other home-based business ownersare worried that some, though not all, are

being targeted for non-compliance withbylaw regulations which they considerunfair and overly restrictive such as noemployees allowed, no structural changescan be made to a home, and no delivery ofgoods to a home-based business. Many ofthese restrictions are more narrow than

bylaws related to home owners. Theyreworried that a crack-down on restrictiveregulations could mean the shutting downof businesses that contribute to the health& vitality of this community.
