DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:

The subject property is a 2.80 acre parcel that is currently zoned General Agriculture (A-1). The subject parcel lies within the Secondary Springs Protection Zone and the Urban Growth Boundary. The applicant is shuttering her pet grooming business of twenty years and requesting a special use permit (SUP) to operate a limited grooming operation from her home to maintain some clients while cutting back her committed hours. 

 

Staff has compared this request to requirements as indicated in Florida Statute 559.955 - Home-Based Businesses and the Marion County Comprehensive Plan.  Staff has determined that the proposed special use is compatible with both documents.
