Circuit court upholds aluminum siding home operation ruling
Frederick County Circuit Court Judge Robert E. Clapp Jr affirmed a Frederick County Board of Zoning Appeals decision against Roger B Bustos of Peas Shop Road. The Home Occupation permit allowed storage of aluminum siding on Bustos farm but the court found the operation exceeded the permitted space and was not conducted by the homeowner. The shed used percent of space and control of day to day operations by the business manager was questioned, with county and local attorneys presenting competing views on whether the site was commercial in nature or within Home Occupation limits.
