That the proposed location of the conditional use is in accordance with the objectives of the zoning ordinance and the purpose of the district in which the site is located. Chapters 18.32 and 18.36 permit home occupations to be conducted in residences in the R-l and RM zoning districts, in accordance with chapter 18.104 (Home Occupations). Some of the objectives of the R-l and RM districts are to protect residential properties from the hazards, noise and congestion created by commercial and industrial traffic, and to protect properties from noise, illumination, unsightliness, odors, dust, dirt and other objectionable influences and hazards. The objective of Chapter 18.104 is to permit certain home occupations which will not affect adversely the residential character of a neighborhood, yet to permit the conduct of certain activities which could occur within a residence and be unnoticeable from the exterior, such as therapeutic massage. The required conditions for non-exempt home occupations meet the objectives of the R-l and RM zoning districts by not permitting manufacturing or deliveries to the home, or the creation of pedestrian or vehicular traffic in excess of that usually generated by residential uses.
