Quakertown Borough home occupations must comply with §318 accessory use standards. No-impact home-based businesses are a separate category with stricter traffic limits. Off-street parking per Table 6.1. Excessive traffic may trigger zoning enforcement.
Quakertown Borough distinguishes between home occupations and no-impact home-based businesses. No-impact home-based businesses presumably have stricter limits on customer traffic and external impacts. Standard home occupations under §318 must remain accessory to the residential use and not generate excessive commercial activity. Off-street parking requirements per Table 6.1 apply. Single-family parking can be met by driveway/carport/garage (10x20 ft spaces). Excessive customer traffic disrupting the residential character could result in zoning enforcement and potentially reclassification of the use. The construction noise restriction (no work after 7 PM or on Sundays) would apply to any customer-generating activities as well.
Excessive traffic beyond home occupation scope: zoning violation.
