Home occupations in McKinney must not generate customer or client traffic beyond what is normal for a residence. Zoning interprets this as typically no more than one or two client visits per day by appointment only.
No regular classes, group lessons, or scheduled overlapping appointments. No signage directing customers. Parking must be accommodated on the driveway without overflow to street or neighbor property. Businesses receiving frequent deliveries or customer pickups (crafts sales, fitness groups, daycare over state limits) must relocate to commercial zoning. Licensed family home daycare regulated separately under Texas HHS rules.
Excessive traffic: up to 2,000 dollars per day. Repeated violations result in cease-and-desist and loss of home occupation status.
