The building was originally built in the mid-1980s and was grandfathered as a legal non -conforming use. It was expanded in 1998 by approximately 750 sq. ft., as a home occupation (for cabinet shop). Mr. McCoy has also built another building behind the shop. Smith said the staff was not in favor of the request due to the property being designated residential in the Land Use Plan.
