The Centerville Planning Commission on Aug. 27 unanimously approved a conditional use permit for Scones and Stuff, a home-based micro enterprise kitchen to be operated by Jacob Tibbetts at 1332 North Main. The permit allows small-scale baking for scheduled customer pickups and off-site catering.\n\nStaff said the operation will be single-employee, with customers coming only for scheduled pickups before 8 a.m. and after hours up to 6 p.m., and recommended approval after finding the proposal met applicable code standards.\n\nWhy it matters: The commission's decision allows a local resident to run a food-preparation business from a residence under Centerville’s home-occupation rules while relying on conditions the city uses to limit impacts on neighbors and public services. The permit sets an operational precedent for other small home-based food enterprises in zones governed by the cited code sections.\n\nCity staff described the application and findings. “Customers will only come to the property for scheduled pickups before 8AM and 6PM,” staff said in the report, and noted there are three parking stalls available in the circular lot and no recorded code-enforcement complaints at nearby home-occupation businesses. Staff referenced Centerville City Code sections CCC 12.62.070, CCC 12.62.050 and the conditional-use standards in CCC 12.21.100 when recommending approval.\n\nApplicant Jacob Tibbetts identified himself at the microphone and said he had no additional comments. During public comment the commission received no speakers.\n\nThe commission acted on a motion to approve the conditional use permit, with Commissioner Jorgensen moving and Commissioner Patterson seconding; the motion passed unanimously. The approval was granted subject to the conditions and findings listed in the staff packet.\n\nTopics in the record included the scale of operations (sole employee), hours and pickup procedures, available on-site parking (three stalls), and the lack of prior enforcement complaints in the neighborhood. No additional restrictions, appeals timeline or enforcement actions were described on the record.
