The Town of Hampden Planning Board approved a home‑occupation application March 12, 2025 for Todd Buske at 16 Fisher Lane.

Applicant Todd Buske told the board the proposed home business will operate primarily off‑site, that deliveries will come by regular carrier service and not by dedicated commercial pick‑ups, and that there will be no employees and no on‑site customer traffic. "It won't affect the abutters at all," Buske said during the hearing.

Why it matters: the permit allows the applicant to operate a small, primarily off‑site commercial activity from a residential address, and it allows the applicant to obtain a business certificate needed for banking and sales.

Details
- Applicant: Todd Buske, 16 Fisher Lane; requested a home‑occupation permit to receive stock and package goods and to process sales primarily off‑site.
- Board findings: no change in traffic, no employees, and no expected impact on abutters as presented by the applicant.
- Motion and vote: the board moved to approve the home‑occupation application; a member seconded and the board recorded the vote in the meeting as affirmative.

Ending: The applicant was advised to contact the town clerk to obtain the required business certificate and may proceed following the board’s approval.
