Home businesses in Fillmore must limit customer traffic to maintain the residential character of the neighborhood. The zoning code typically restricts client visits, deliveries, and parking impacts. The business must not generate traffic materially different from normal residential use.
Fillmore's home occupation regulations limit customer and client traffic to maintain residential neighborhood character. Home businesses generally may not generate traffic noticeably greater than normal residential use. Typical restrictions include: limited client visits per day (often no more than 8-10 clients), no more than one commercial delivery per day, no customer parking that blocks streets or driveways, and no outdoor display of merchandise or inventory. The business must operate from within the home and not expand into the garage or yard in ways visible to neighbors. Community Development at (805) 524-1500 ext 234 can clarify specific traffic restrictions for your home occupation type.
Excessive customer traffic is a common trigger for home business complaints. Neighbors may report traffic and parking impacts to code enforcement. Violations can result in revocation of the home occupation permit and requirement to cease operations.
