Home occupations are meant to show no outward evidence of a business, so signage is tightly limited. Cities such as Layton allow, at most, a small non-illuminated nameplate; check your city's or the county's zoning code before posting any sign.
A core condition of a home occupation across Davis County jurisdictions is that it stay incidental to residential use and create no exterior evidence of a business. That typically bars commercial signs, illuminated or large signs, and window advertising; where any sign is allowed it is usually a single small non-illuminated nameplate identifying the occupant. Layton administers home occupations under Municipal Code Section 19.06.030, and the unincorporated county under Title 15. Because exact sign dimensions vary by city, confirm the allowed size and placement with your city planning/zoning office or Davis County Planning before installing signage.
An unpermitted or oversized home-business sign is a zoning violation; code enforcement can order removal and issue fines until the sign complies.
