Home occupations in West Palm Beach are limited in customer visits to avoid changing the residential character of the neighborhood. City Code §94 caps client visits at typical levels and prohibits scheduled group instruction in single-family zones.
Permitted operations may receive client visits limited to one client at a time and generally no more than 8 client visits per day during standard business hours (8 AM to 6 PM). Group classes, lessons, or any activity that creates parking demand exceeding the home's driveway capacity is not allowed. Deliveries must be by passenger vehicle, USPS, UPS, or FedEx; commercial freight deliveries are prohibited. Neighborhood complaints frequently trigger Code Compliance investigations.
Exceeding traffic limits: $250 per occurrence plus revocation of Home Occupation registration after repeated violations.
