Galloway Township tightly limits signage for home occupations. Under Chapter 233, no sign may be maintained in connection with an accessory use except as expressly authorized by the ordinance, so home businesses generally cannot post commercial advertising signs in residential zones.
Galloway's Land Management ordinance treats home occupations as accessory uses and restricts advertising. The code provides that no sign, except as expressly authorized by the sign provisions of Chapter 233, may be maintained in connection with an accessory use. In practice a home business must keep the home's residential appearance and cannot display an illuminated or commercial sign. Any small identification sign permitted must comply with the residential-district sign standards for size and placement.
An unauthorized home-business sign violates Chapter 233; the Zoning Officer can order its removal and pursue municipal-court penalties for continuing violations.
