Boulder City prohibits exterior signage, window displays, and advertising for home occupations. The residence must appear unchanged from the street, and no commercial identification is permitted.
Under Boulder City home occupation standards in Title 11 of the Municipal Code, no exterior signs, banners, window displays, or other visible advertising identifying the home business are permitted on the residential property. The dwelling must retain a fully residential appearance from any public street or alley. Commercial vehicles with business lettering generally cannot be parked on site in a manner that functions as advertising. Home business operators may advertise online or in print but cannot place physical signage at the residence. This restriction preserves Boulder City's residential neighborhood character and controlled growth goals.
