Planning Commission approves in-home salon at 3086 S 500 E under Category II Home Occupation
Summary
The commission approved a Conditional Use Permit for an in-home hair salon at 3086 S 500 E (Daisy L. Johnson). The salon will occupy 81 sq ft (about 13% of a 778 sq ft home), operate 9 a.m.–7 p.m., allow only the homeowner as operator and one customer at a time, and must maintain one off-street parking stall.
The South Salt Lake City Planning Commission on Jan. 15 approved a Category II Home Occupation Conditional Use Permit (C-25-00010) to allow Daisy L. Johnson to operate an in-home hair salon at 3086 S 500 E.
City Planner Jed Shum told the commission the house totals approximately 778 square feet and the salon area will occupy 81 square feet (about 13% of the dwelling), meeting the code limit of no more than 20% of a dwelling’s floor area for a Category II Home Occupation. Staff recommended approval based on General Plan considerations and compliance with Title 17 standards, including parking and hours. The permit conditions require the applicant to maintain one on-site parking stall, obtain a South Salt Lake commercial business license, and comply with county health, fire, building and engineering requirements.
Applicant Daisy L. Johnson, participating by Zoom, told the commission there are no special handling issues with products used in the salon and that the business will not employ additional staff. Commissioners asked about chemical and hair-trimming disposal; Johnson and staff said the salon will comply with the Salt Lake County Health Department and that no hazardous handling is anticipated. Commissioner Pechmann moved to approve the CUP; Commissioner Slifka seconded and the vote was unanimous on the record.
The Conditional Use Permit document written in the record reiterates standard limitations: no more than one non-resident employee (none proposed), hours limited to 7 a.m.–8 p.m. (applicant proposes 9 a.m.–7 p.m.), limitation to one customer on the premises at a time, and a small sign allowance not exceeding 2 square feet. The permit will be released to the applicant after required business license and building-permit steps.
