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 to be permitted to operate a limited grooming operation from her home in order 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.
