The board approved the request with two conditions: the home may be used only as the business address and for administrative work, and no medical supplies may be sold and delivered to customers from the residence. The board closed the public hearing and approved the special exception on a unanimous vote.

Planning staff described the proposal as a home‑based administrative office for a start‑up product. Staff said all sales and client meetings will occur at health‑care facilities, not at the residence; samples would be taken to facilities for demonstrations and \"lunch‑and‑learn\" presentations. Staff told the board the product is manufactured offsite and that samples would be delivered to the applicant in boxes; the applicant said boxes would likely contain about 100 cups each and would be stored inside the house, limited to a single room.

Taylor Wilson, owner and sole employee, told the board the Tuck Cup is a flexible, patented urine specimen cup designed so women may provide samples without aiming. \"Tuck Cup is a patented product and is flexible urine specimen cup that does not require aiming in order to give a sample, making it less messy for women to give a sample,\" Wilson said. She said the home office would be used for emails, phone calls and scheduling and that no customers would come to the residence.

During discussion the board added a clarification to staff’s recommended second condition so the restriction would prevent in‑person sales or deliveries to customers at the residence. The final language recorded in the motion read that \"no medical supplies will be sold and delivered to customers from 1901 Burns Road.\" The board made the motion based on staff findings that the use meets the code’s special‑exception criteria and the home‑occupation standards in Section 5.3.7.

The motion to grant ZE25‑001 was made by Kevin Skaggs and seconded by Kathy Stallworth; the vote was unanimous. The approval allows Wilson to maintain administrative operations and a limited inventory of sample boxes at the residence for use in off‑site demonstrations but does not permit customer pick‑up or on‑site medical supply sales and deliveries.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City of North Augusta BZA Meeting 2/4/25","oneSentenceSummary","Taylor Wilson was granted a special‑exception home‑occupation at 1901 Burns Road for administrative work related to the Tuck Cup product; the board prohibited selling and delivering medical supplies from the residence and limited on‑site storage.","taxTitle","North Augusta, Aiken County, South Carolina","taxId",56877,"location","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_47":80,"_49":81,"_51":82,"_53":83,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":84,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":85,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":56,"_73":56},6353536,"North Augusta BZA approves home‑office exception for Stanton Drive handyman",1194,107000,1301000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2221231-6d72265bdeb870eaa1709834aa2588d5&start=107&end=1301","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2221231-6d72265bdeb870eaa1709834aa2588d5/thumbnail_107000.jpg","/articles/6353536/North-Augusta/Aiken-County/South-Carolina/North-Augusta-BZA-approves-homeoffice-exception-for-Stanton-Drive-handyman","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6353536-da05a39fd1b1ac4783f5bc9ec0540047/orig.mp4?Expires=1771213406&Signature=ghDCDxOIjjvOzQD7lFlZLa2mC6-bQRUMUVvWShXFtqc4AGkeM4udmJcowdx11dcQiHUXkQQjQxG9IOgtF8vkulTR3AS6LdGAcKgoGVS1cV9TB4KVjl3zF76OP-3nuCmGqBQiOc1GRp6-OkTD21yV54CeagYF5VNq4x8ALuW8nXwSMfozZw2tqbIjlzBgEaByu1F2a7WMv2dvaZfJwjlve~cf4xIa~XQB2r0ACHASdBE2h2PsSyeSYED-0ouoQcMV3sMDjAf6d~iqjeZ~1~liNLYkN8kgB~0fxlgFWSvXD8K3uLAH5zB6FYWk35-ufnESWjIJimbXd-YoLxwmIMLdZA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The North Augusta Board of Zoning Appeals on Feb. 4 unanimously approved a special‑exception home‑occupation for HMB Property Solutions LLC at 1026 Stanton Drive, allowing the homeowner to use part of the basement for business record keeping and administrative work.

The decision permits the residence to be the business address for HMB Property Solutions and to house records and bookkeeping but imposes two conditions: the home may be used only as the business address and for record keeping, and no heavy machinery may be stored or operated at the residence. The board voted unanimously to grant the special exception after closing the public hearing.

Staff told the board the application seeks permission for a home office for an appliance/handyman business and that no repairs would be conducted at the residence. The staff report noted the property is in an R‑14 single‑family district and that home occupations are conditional accessory uses under the North Augusta Development Code. Staff recommended approval with conditions after reviewing applicable code standards, including Section 5.3.7 (home occupations).

Applicant Honey Buccieri, resident of 1026 Stanton Drive, told the board the request is limited to record keeping and administrative work. \"This is just for a handyman business as presented. What I'm asking for is just to keep my records. Basically, I put a table and a chair in my basement, and I have my computer and my file,\" Buccieri said during the hearing. Buccieri said there would be no heavy machinery kept outdoors, no clients visiting the home and no work performed at the property.

Board members noted a petition of adjacent homeowners in support, and staff pointed out the lot backs up to general commercial property at the end of Stanton Drive. During questioning Buccieri confirmed she has lived at the address since 2011 and named the nearby neighbors who signed the petition.

After the board reviewed the 11 special‑exception criteria in North Augusta Development Code Section 8.18.8.4, a member who presided over the hearing moved to grant ZE24‑008 with the two staff conditions. The motion passed unanimously; the record shows the motion was made by Kevin Skaggs and seconded by Burke Oliver.

The approval allows HMB Property Solutions to use the Stanton Drive residence as the company mailing/business address and for internal record keeping only; it does not authorize client traffic, exterior storage of building materials or on‑site repair work.

The board closed the public hearing and issued the decision the same day.","The North Augusta Board of Zoning Appeals unanimously granted a special‑exception home‑occupation for HMB Property Solutions LLC at 1026 Stanton Drive, limited to office/record‑keeping and prohibiting heavy machinery or outdoor storage.","actionData","errors"]
