LCM Legacy 5K Color Run & Walk Planned for May 2
The City of Orange recognizes that home-based businesses are becoming a more common method of working. Home-based businesses help alleviate traffic, help decrease the cost of doing business, allow people to work who might otherwise be unable to work, and are appropriate within residential areas, subject to certain provisions which are established to maintain the character and property values of existing residential areas. A home-based business must be approved by the Director of Planning and Community Development and must meet each of the following requirements:
• The home occupation shall be within the principal residence or a permitted accessory building;
• The home occupation shall not occupy more than 50 percent of the gross floor area of the principal residence;
• There shall be no exterior indication (including signs and banners) that the home occupation is taking place;
• There shall be no employees for the home occupation other than immediate members of the family, such as mother, father, sister, brother, son or daughter;
• There shall be no traffic generated by the home occupation other than that normally associated with residential use; and
• There shall be no use of equipment or process carried on that would create a nuisance to the neighboring properties.
If you are thinking of starting a home-based business, please call the Planning and Community Development Department at 409-883-1034 and they will be happy to discuss your business with you and let you know if you qualify for a home-based business.

The Orange City Council, city staff, and over forty members of the public participated in a public workshop to discuss the future of Lions Den Park on Tuesday, March 3 in the Orange Library Auditorium. City Manager Mike Kunst presented to those in attendance a review of the current situation at the park, which is now closed to the public due to safety concerns. A recent safety inspection of the wooden castle found it unsafe for continued use.
During the hour-long meeting, Kunst displayed pictures and graphics of playground options that could replace the twenty-year-old wooden castle. After the presentation, several members of the public offered their thoughts, concerns, and opinions on the future of the Lion’s Den Park playground. While the council took no action at the meeting, they did agree to revisit options for playground equipment and designs during the City Council meeting of Tuesday, March 24 which starts at 5:30 pm.
The Orange City Council welcomes the Citizens of Orange to offer their thoughts on the playground during the Citizen Comments section of either council meeting on March 10 or March 24. Also, citizens may provide their feedback via email at socialmedia@orangetexasgov.us.
The Lion’s Den playground will remain closed until further notice.
