Lodi prohibits any advertising sign for a home occupation. Only a single nameplate not exceeding one square foot, attached flush to a wall of the structure, is allowed under LMC §17.36.060(C)(4).
LMC §17.36.060(C)(4) reads: 'No signs are permitted in conjunction with the use, other than one name plate, not exceeding one square foot in area, and only if attached flush to a wall of the structure. There shall be no advertising signs.' Window signs, A-frames, lawn signs, vehicle wraps used as outdoor display, and illuminated signs identifying the business are all prohibited. The general citywide sign regulations are codified at LMC Chapter 17.46 (Signs), as amended by Ordinance No. 1922, but the residential-zone home-occupation limit in §17.36.060 controls for in-home businesses.
Unauthorized signage is enforced by the Community Improvement Division. Typical process: courtesy notice, then administrative citation if the sign is not removed. Each day the prohibited sign remains is a separate violation under Title 17. Repeated sign violations can trigger revocation of the underlying Home Occupation Permit.
