A home occupation in unincorporated Snohomish County may have one sign that is unlighted, no larger than two square feet, and attached flat to the building. External display of merchandise is prohibited.
SCC 30.28.050 provides that signs connected with a home occupation shall be unlighted, shall not exceed two square feet, and shall be attached flat to the building. There may be no external display of merchandise, and no sales of merchandise on the premises except goods produced by the residents. Separately, SCC 30.27.020 allows any single-family residence one unlighted name sign up to two square feet per face. These limits keep the business from advertising like a commercial storefront.
An oversized, illuminated, freestanding, or merchandise-display sign violates SCC 30.28.050 and can be cited under Title 30 sign and code-enforcement provisions.
