Brentwood vs San Ramon

Customer visits to Brentwood home-based businesses are strictly limited to preserve residential character. Most home occupation permits allow only by-appointment visits with no more than one or two clients on the property at a time and no visible retail activity. Walk-in traffic and regular client group sessions are prohibited.

San Ramon home occupations strictly limit customer visits. On-site retail sales to walk-in customers are prohibited. Occasional client visits by appointment may be allowed for professional services but cannot create noticeable traffic, parking, or activity beyond what a residence would normally generate.
