Summary

The board recommended approval of a conditional-use permit for a licensed aesthetician to operate a one-client-at-a-time beauty business from her home at 343 South May Avenue, subject to routine inspections and licensing.

The City of Kankakee Planning Board unanimously recommended that the City Council approve a conditional-use permit allowing Lindsay Hadden to operate an aesthetician (beauty salon) as a major home occupation at 343 South May Avenue.

Hadden told the board she holds an aesthetician license with 18 years’ experience, will see one client at a time, does not plan public advertising or signage, and has coordinated preliminary contact with building and fire officials. Planning staff and commissioners confirmed that the operation will require a home-occupation business license and that the fire and building departments will perform inspections to ensure safe ingress and egress and compliance with applicable code provisions.

Board action: Commissioner Deb Terrell moved to recommend approval of the conditional-use permit, attaching the staff findings. Barry McCracken seconded. Roll call recorded affirmative votes and the recommendation will proceed to City Council on Nov. 3.

Next steps: The applicant must obtain the city-issued home occupation/business license and satisfy any building- or fire-department conditions before commencing operation.
