"Ir. Pownall,
As we just discussed, the home occupation application you submitted proposes
fire arms training classes once a month with up to 10 students. Training
classes with groups of students is not permitted as a home occupation but
individual instruction is permitted. In order to process your home
occupation application (attached), please revise the Description of Use
attachment you provided to no longer include the description regarding
classes. Once you have provided the revised information, we will proceed
with processing the application, including notification to abutting property
owners and posting a notice sign on the property. ATF approval is also
required prior to approval of the home occupation application.
Training classes may be permitted with an approved special use permit. If
you would like to discuss the requirements and process for that type of
application, please let me know and we can set up a time to go over the
application in person.
Please call me at 434-296-5832 Ext. 3226 if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Rebecca Ragsdale
