Loading...
Summary
The board granted a conditional‑use permit to operate a cottage‑food (donuts) production at 97 North Roosevelt, conditioning approval on compliance with state and local regulations and reiterating that no retail sales may occur at the residence.
The Bexley Board of Zoning and Planning on March 2026 approved a conditional‑use permit to allow a cottage‑food production operation at 97 North Roosevelt.
Robert Myers, the applicant, told the board he plans to bake and deliver shelf‑stable baked goods (donuts) and that he does not intend to sell products directly from his home. Planning staff cited the state definition of cottage foods and reminded the board that local code prohibits on‑site retail sales in connection with the conditional use. The board recorded on the public record that the applicant must comply with applicable state and local rules and obtain any necessary certifications or inspections before operating.
The board’s approval was moved and seconded and passed by roll call. The motion included the explicit condition that there be no retail sales at the home and that the applicant comply with all applicable statutes and regulations.
The applicant and his supporting spouse were present; no members of the public spoke in opposition.
