Customer and delivery traffic at a Keller home occupation must not change residential character. High-volume retail and frequent walk-in clients are not allowed. Parking must stay on site.
One of the core conditions on home occupations in Keller is that the business cannot generate customer, client, or delivery traffic that changes the residential character of the neighborhood. The zoning code home occupation provisions do not typically set a hard numeric cap on daily visitors, but they do require that visible activity remain consistent with normal residential use. High-frequency walk-in clients, scheduled classes with multiple attendees, and retail customers browsing inventory in the home are not allowed. Low-volume appointment-based services such as one-on-one tutoring, consulting, or occasional client meetings are generally acceptable as long as they do not dominate driveway and street parking or create noise and disturbance. All client parking must stay on the resident driveway or on legal street parking without blocking neighbors, driveways, fire hydrants, or mailboxes. Delivery patterns must match ordinary residential expectations rather than commercial shipping volumes. Violations often come to light through neighbor complaints about traffic, parking, or noise, and Code Enforcement evaluates the cumulative impact rather than a single visit. HOAs in most Keller subdivisions further restrict or prohibit client visits to the home.
