Commercial Cooking in Residential Home

But as globe trekker mentioned, there is no way to monitor the volume once it is allowed. JMHO

Fatboy, I agree with you and globe trekker.

This is why I give the applicant the information on how to get a home occupation permit.

Wow! I almost forgot I posted this.

I'll have to read through these on monday.

Thanks...and happy new year!
 
I have to go with Jobsaver's approach.

We have yet to hear from the health department on it. Their approval will be required.

Also, whatever plumbing she will need to do in order to install the separate sinks, etc.

No commercial range will be allowed, per the residential status of the property, hence, no type I hood.

If she outgrows the place, it will be up to her to seek new commercial accomodations.

If it becomes a code enforcement issue, that will be dealt with at the time. The business license can be revoked.

Thanks for a good debate.
 
If it's commercial use.. sounds like it is.. particularly if they are doing any frying.. sandwiches and fruit plates are one thing... heavy duty cooking.. well.. it's a business..
