Regulations
The regulations set forth in this chapter qualify or supplement, as the case may be, the regulations appearing elsewhere in this Code.
A Home Occupation is a permitted Accessory Use, conducted and carried on entirely within a dwelling, or within an accessory Structure on the same Lot, by Persons residing in the dwelling, which Use is clearly incidental and secondary to the Use of the dwelling for dwelling purposes and does not change the residential character thereof.
Only those Persons making the home their primary residence may be employed in a Business operated from that home.
A Home Occupation shall not include the on-Site sale of goods or merchandise except those, which are produced on the premises, or those that are clearly Incidental Retail Sales, and shall not involve the Use of any outdoor yard space to conduct the Business, with the exception of permitted agricultural and horticultural products. Activity outside of the Buildings, related to the Home Occupation that is not normally associated with a Residential Use is not permitted.
The Use of mechanical equipment shall be limited to small tools whose Use shall not generate noise, vibration, smoke, dust, heat, glare, or odors perceptible beyond the premises of the dwelling.
The total Area used for the Home Occupation shall be limited to no more than one-half ( ½ ) of the floor Area of the first floor and shall not change the residential character of the Building. This does not require the Home Occupation to occupy only the first floor.
Outdoor storage of equipment, materials, and supplies associated with a Home Occupation is prohibited. Storage of equipment, materials, and supplies associated with a Home Occupation, within a garage, shall not displace required Off-Street parking.
There shall be no exterior advertising of Home Occupation Businesses on the premises by window displays or signs.
No traffic may be generated by such Home Occupation in a volume that creates a need for parking greater than that which can be accommodated on the Site consistent with the residential parking requirements or which is inconsistent with the normal parking usage of the district.
Secondary living quarters are a permitted Accessory Use in all districts except the HRL, HR-1, HR-2, and ROS, unless previously approved by a Master Planned Development. Any request for secondary living quarters within residential dwellings shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Department.
