Indian River County cannot cap your customers just because you work from home. Florida's Home-Based Business Act, Fla. Stat. §559.955, lets a home business receive clients, but limits nonresident employees to two and keeps parking and traffic under the neutral rules that bind any residence.
Under Fla. Stat. §559.955, employees who work at the home must also live there, except that up to two workers or independent contractors from outside may work at the business. The Act protects client visits so long as the business stays secondary to residential use and the property, seen from the street, still resembles its neighbors. Indian River County may not single out a home business, but its generally applicable rules on on-street parking, traffic, and noise still apply. Clients parking on the lot rather than crowding the street, and visits that do not disrupt the neighborhood, keep the business inside the Act's protection.
Customer traffic or parking beyond what the neighborhood normally carries, or a workforce past two nonresident employees, pushes the business outside the Act's limits and opens it to county code enforcement and fines.
