Pasadena Home Occupation Permits require businesses to avoid excessive pedestrian and automobile traffic in residential areas. Code Compliance officers evaluate traffic impact before issuing permits. Indoor and outdoor storage related to the business is also regulated.
The Home Occupation Permit in Pasadena includes guidelines to prevent excessive pedestrian and automobile traffic, noise, and storage that would disrupt the residential character of a neighborhood. Before approval, a Code Compliance Officer conducts a field inspection to determine whether the proposed business type is compatible with the residential location. Businesses generating significant customer traffic, deliveries, or parking demand may not be approved. The business owner must demonstrate understanding of and willingness to comply with permit requirements. Violations of traffic or storage conditions may result in permit revocation. The city's off-street parking ordinance requires 2 spaces per single-family dwelling, and home businesses should not exceed available parking.
Excessive traffic violations: permit revocation. Operating without permit: citation.
