The City of Lubbock's home-occupation rules prohibit exterior signs, displays, or other outward evidence advertising a home business in residential zones. Unincorporated Lubbock County has no sign zoning, but rules on right-of-way obstructions still apply.
A core condition of a City of Lubbock customary home occupation is that the business show no external evidence: no exterior signage, window display, or advertising visible from the street, so the property keeps its residential appearance. Unincorporated Lubbock County cannot zone signs, so there is no county home-business sign ordinance; however, signs placed in county road rights-of-way can be removed as obstructions, and state law governs certain outdoor advertising. Incorporated cities such as Slaton and Wolfforth apply their own sign codes.
Prohibited home-business signage in the City of Lubbock is a zoning violation subject to removal orders and municipal fines; the county cannot cite residential sign content in unincorporated areas.
