Union City's LDO requires home occupation customer traffic to remain consistent with residential neighborhood character. Given Union City's extreme density and parking scarcity, businesses with regular client visits are closely scrutinized.
Chapter 223 (Land Development) requires home occupations to not generate customer or client traffic exceeding typical residential norms. Union City's extreme density and limited parking mean that even modest increases in visitor traffic from a home business can significantly impact neighbors. Businesses with regular client visits must limit access. The Zoning Officer can investigate home business complaints. Contact the Zoning Department at (201) 348-5731.
Excessive home business traffic: zoning violation, fines, cease-and-desist under Chapter 223.
