Galloway Township requires a zoning permit for the initial establishment of a home professional office or home occupation. Apply through the Community Development / Zoning Office; the use must meet Chapter 233 standards (size cap, indoor operation, no change to residential appearance).
Under Chapter 233, a zoning permit is required for the initial establishment of the home professional office. The Zoning Officer reviews the application against the home-occupation standards: no more than one per dwelling unit; no more than 10% of the dwelling and accessory structures or 500 square feet, whichever is less; conducted indoors with no outdoor storage; and no noise, glare, fumes, odors, or electrical interference. Contact the Community Development Department at 300 East Jimmie Leeds Road, (609) 652-3700.
Running a home occupation without the required zoning permit, or exceeding the ordinance limits, violates Chapter 233; the Zoning Officer may issue a violation notice and pursue municipal-court fines until compliance.
