5 rules for unincorporated Coconino County, Arizona.
Verified from official government sources
In unincorporated Coconino County a home occupation is allowed in residential zones, but it needs an Administrative Permit from the Community Development Department and must stay incidental to living in the home. Flagstaff, Sedona, Page, and Williams run their own rules.
Coconino County's home occupation standards bar any sign or display that makes a home look non-residential, so external business signage is effectively prohibited at a home occupation in unincorporated areas. Flagstaff and Sedona apply their own sign codes.
A Coconino County home occupation cannot generate more foot or vehicle traffic than the residential district normally sees. Walk-in retail is not a permitted home occupation, though online sales with shipping are fine.
Arizona's cottage food law lets Coconino County residents sell non-hazardous homemade foods like baked goods, jams, and candies direct to consumers. You must complete a food handler course and register free with the Arizona Department of Health Services first.
A.R.S. § 36-136(I)(13)
A registered food preparer shall renew the registration every three years and shall provide to the department updated registration information within thirty days after any change.
Caring for five or more unrelated children for pay in Arizona requires an ADHS child care license. Caring for four or fewer falls outside state licensing, but county zoning and residential-use rules still apply.
A.R.S. § 36-881(4)
any facility in which child care is regularly provided for compensation for five or more children not related to the proprietor.
