Land Use
In Practice
The most common restrictions in home occupation ordinances include prohibiting customers or clients from visiting the property, requiring that no external evidence of business activity be visible (such as signage or commercial vehicles), limiting employees to residents of the dwelling, and capping the percentage of floor area dedicated to business use. These restrictions are designed to ensure that home businesses do not generate commercial traffic patterns or alter the character of residential streets.
