[Added 9-12-1994]
(1) 
The intent is to afford a means of allowing, by conditional use permit, owners of single-unit, detached structures to earn income by providing a bed-and-breakfast service while retaining the appearance of a single-unit dwelling.
(2) 
No more than eight guest sleeping rooms shall be utilized for any one bed-and-breakfast service. No cooking shall be allowed in guest rooms. Breakfast shall be the only meal served to guests. Owners of dwelling units housing a bed-and-breakfast service shall keep a log of the names, addresses, number in party and dates of stay of each adult guest and unaccompanied minor guest. This log may be reviewed by, and on demand shall be temporarily given to, the City in the annual review process to ascertain intensity of the use and effect on the neighborhood of the bed-and-breakfast service.
(3) 
Notwithstanding any other provision in this chapter, a bed-and-breakfast use may be identified by a sign of no more than four feet square. This sign may be attached or freestanding. The freestanding sign shall not exceed three feet in height.
(4) 
No bed-and-breakfast service shall be approved or continued in a dwelling unit where persons other than the owner or operator and his or her family are living or in a dwelling unit other than a detached single-unit dwelling unit.
(5) 
No interior or exterior changes may be made to the dwelling unit housing the bed-and-breakfast service, that are nonresidential in appearance, including (but not limited to) changes to lighting, exterior steps or accessory buildings.
(6) 
The Zoning Administrator shall annually review the conditional use permit for a bed-and-breakfast use for consistency with this chapter. The Planning Commission and City Council specifically reserves the right it generally enjoys to revoke the conditional use permit on a finding after notice and hearing that such use has become inconsistent with this chapter.
(7) 
Parking for guests shall not be designated in a public street or closer to the adjacent street than the plane established by the front of the structure. In addition to those spaces required for the dwelling unit, there shall be provided for a bed-and-breakfast service, one space for each guest bedroom available. The design, materials and standards of construction of parking spaces for bed-and-breakfast service shall be in accordance with § 160-158B of the Zoning chapter.
