Ms. Dennis suggested keeping the same number of students but lengthening the hours to allow for make-up lessons. Pan of a home occupation ~s being able to fit with the neighborhood. Due to the success of the business, perhaps the applicant could go out of the home for addition teaching for the remainder of the week. Ms. Mohr believed limiting the students required voluntary compliance by the applicant and would present enforcement problems. She preferred regulation of the number of hours and making sure the students were one on one. It was moved by Ms. Mohr to establish conditions that the resident teacher can teach one student at a time and no non-resident instructors can be there; the hours would be 12:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Friday, 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Saturday; that there be no amplified instruments; no garage use for teaching; no sale of associated merchandise from the home; that off-site noise not be allowed; no signs; the windows shall remain closed; and no recitals on site. The motion died for lack of a second. It was moved by Ms. Dennis, seconded by Mr. Pico, to approve the staff recommendation but limiting instruction to four days a week and expanding the hours from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday. Mr. Tarver felt expanding the hours to allow flexibility for make-up lessons is appropriate and believed that if there are violations the matter can come back to Council. He understands the need for Mrs. Lew to make a living. He would hope that the issues would go away if the conditions are followed and there is respect for the neighborhood. Mr. Tarver proposed a substitute motion, seconded by Ms. Mohr, to alter the proposed condition l(c) to have ten students per day. The vote on the whether to accept the substitute motion was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers - Mohr and Mayor Tarvet NOES: Councilmembers - Dennis and Pico ABSENT: Councilmember Scribner ABSTAIN: None Due to the tie vote, the motion to accept the substitute motion failed and Council returned to deliberation on the original motion of Ms. Dennis to approve the proposed conditions of approval modifying condition l(a) for hours of operation Monday - Thursday, 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and changing l(c) to "the total number of students shall be limited to a maximum of ten per day." All other conditions apply. Mr. MacDonald stressed the need to allow students to be at Mrs. Lew's house until 8:00 p.m. at least two nights a week. 10/18/94 - 11 -
