A by-right Home Office in Bowling Green is prohibited from any signage under Sec. 5.2.2.B(1). A Conditional Use Permit Home Occupation under Sec. 5.2.2.C may install one monument or wall sign limited to 6 square feet maximum, with no change to the dwelling's residential character.
The Warren County/Joint Zoning Ordinance Sec. 5.2.2.B(1) prohibits all signage for the by-right Home Office category — that no-customer, residents-only tier of in-home work is meant to be invisible from the street. Sec. 5.2.2.C.1.a(4) governs Home Occupations approved by Conditional Use Permit: 'There shall be no change in the outside appearance of the dwelling or premises, or other visible evidence of the conduct of such home occupation. Signage shall be limited to 6 sq. ft., monument or wall sign only.' Illuminated, freestanding pole signs, A-frame signs, banners, and inflatables are prohibited in residential districts under both the Home Occupation standards and the general sign regulations in Article 4. Vehicle lettering on a personal or business vehicle parked at the residence is generally tolerated, though over-sized commercial vehicles in residential zones are restricted under separate parking provisions. Sign violations carry escalated penalties under Sec. 7.2.2 (first offense $50, second $200, additional $300, assessed per sign).
Bowling Green Code Enforcement Board sign violation fines: $50 first / $200 second / $300 additional offenses, assessed per sign per Sec. 7.2.2. Sign removal order and CUP revocation also available.
