Waco restricts customer and client visits to home-based businesses in residential areas. Home occupations should not generate traffic beyond normal residential levels.
Waco's home occupation rules require that the business not generate customer traffic or deliveries beyond what is typical for a residential property. Businesses that rely on walk-in customers, client appointments at the home, or frequent commercial deliveries are generally not permitted as home occupations. Service-based businesses where the resident travels to clients rather than receiving them at home are more appropriate. The zoning ordinance aims to preserve the residential character of neighborhoods by preventing commercial-level traffic patterns.
Zoning violation citations. Home occupation status may be revoked. Fines for continued violations.
