Marana, AZ Home Business: Customer Traffic Restrictions (2026)

The Marana Land Development Code home occupation provisions allow limited customer traffic to a home-based business, but the volume must not exceed what is normal for a residential area. The code requires that the home occupation not generate pedestrian or vehicular traffic substantially in excess of that customary in the residential neighborhood. Deliveries by commercial vehicles are limited to those typical of residential service, such as standard parcel carriers. No more than one client or customer vehicle at a time is generally the threshold applied during permit review. The home occupation permit application reviewed by the Planning Department asks applicants to describe expected traffic patterns. Businesses generating regular foot traffic, such as retail sales or frequent appointment-based services, may be denied a home occupation permit or directed to seek commercial zoning. Off-street parking for any customer vehicles must be provided on the lot and not spill onto neighboring properties or public right-of-way.
