Full Breakdown

Section 14-6-7.A defines a 'standard home occupation' as one with no client presence on the residential site at all, aside from a tutor hosting up to two students at a time or a licensed family day care within its state-allowed capacity. Traffic and parking generated by the business cannot exceed what a residential street would normally see, set at a hard cap of ten vehicle trips per day (20 more for family day care homes). A business that genuinely needs walk-in clients must instead qualify as an 'extended home occupation,' which requires a conditional use permit and is allowed only in the RB-2 and RPB zoning districts.

Violations & Fines

Hosting client visits at a standard home occupation, or generating more than ten vehicle trips per day, violates § 14-6-7.A and can result in revocation of the home occupational business tax receipt.
