Under Florida Statute 559.955, Coral Springs cannot restrict customer traffic to home-based businesses more than it restricts traffic at any other residence. Parking generated by the business may not exceed volumes normally expected at a similar residence, and all vehicles must use legal parking spaces.
Florida Statute 559.955 governs customer traffic for home-based businesses in Coral Springs. The statute provides that parking associated with a home-based business may not be greater in volume than would normally be expected at a similar residence where no business is conducted. All vehicles must be parked in legal parking spaces and may not park on rights-of-way, sidewalks, or unimproved surfaces. The Coral Springs Land Development Code Section 250105 further defines home occupation as an accessory use, distinguishing one-person home occupations from business enterprises. Group consultation or group instruction of any type is considered a business enterprise rather than a home occupation. Activities generating noise, vibration, or other disturbances must comply with local regulations under Chapter 11 of the Code of Ordinances, but those regulations cannot be more stringent than those applying to a residence where no business is conducted.
Excessive traffic or parking violations may result in code compliance action. Parking on rights-of-way, sidewalks, or unimproved surfaces can result in citations. Complaints are handled through the Coral Springs Code Compliance Division or Police Department non-emergency line at 954-344-1800.
