Home occupations in West Valley City are limited to minimal customer traffic: typically no more than 1-2 clients at a time and not more than 10 client visits per day, per Title 7-6 home occupation standards. On-street client parking prohibited.
West Valley City Title 7 Chapter 7-6 (home occupation permit) restricts home-based businesses to activity that is clearly incidental and secondary to residential use. Customer visits are capped at approximately 10 per day with no more than 1-2 clients on-site simultaneously. Clients must park on the driveway or other on-property space; use of the street for client parking creates an enforceable violation. Deliveries are limited to normal parcel services (UPS, FedEx, USPS); commercial freight trucks are prohibited. Utah Code §10-9a-505.5 (HB 243, 2021) preempts outright bans on home occupations but permits reasonable operational limits. Employees: no more than one non-resident employee permitted on premises. Operating hours generally limited to 7 AM-9 PM.
First violation: written warning. Subsequent violations: $100-$750 per infraction. Repeat or egregious violations can lead to permit revocation and Class B misdemeanor prosecution (up to $1,000 and 6 months jail).
