Daycares and home occupations in residential neighborhoods

Summary

Highland's rules for daycares, music lessons, swim lessons, and other home businesses were confusing and inconsistent between zones. The fix sets clear traffic and parking standards and allows these uses on lots of at least a sixth of an acre — a win for young families in newer neighborhoods like Ridgeview.
