Summary

Council approved an intern-use home-occupation permit for a cosmetology salon after city staff said the operator lacked prior zoning clearance identified by a state notice.

The International Falls City Council on Sept. 2 adopted a resolution approving a home-occupation intern-use permit for a cosmetology salon that staff said had been operating without city zoning clearance.

City staff member Mister Myers explained that the operator had previously run the salon and was notified by the state that she lacked proper zoning clearance from the city. Myers said the intern-use permit is tied to the individual; if the property is sold, the intern permit would not transfer as a conditional-use permit would.

Councilor Buller moved to approve the application; Councilor Wagner seconded. The council voted unanimously, 5-0, to approve the intern-use home-occupation permit.

The council record does not include the operator’s name, the address beyond a home-salon reference, or specific state statute citation; Myers described the action as an administrative zoning clearance through the home-occupation process.
