Been reading all the responses to this. Personally, I wouldn't look upon this favorably. I think strongly that the common areas of cohousing are for the community and to facilitate the community as a whole. I've always felt funny about common space being used for private activities unless it is very sporadic. It's a different matter if, as some cohousings have done, space has been built in for on-site businesses, but that is not the case here. It's always a tricky business of discerning the motivation for people moving into cohousing. Ideally, they like the physical aspect but also buy into the cohousing mission of the community. Good luck with this issue.

This business would require use of a large percentage of our outdoor common space for up to 3 hours a day during business hours. The business would also require installing a 4-foot fence to enclose that space. We are wondering if other communities have had experience with home businesses that use common elements, and if so, how it all worked out.
