Marietta Zoning Div. 712 — Type A home occupations: NO signage permitted on property and no advertisements with property address. Type B: no explicit sign allowance in residential districts.
Marietta's home occupation ordinance (Division 712, §712.04) expressly prohibits any signage on the property for Type A home occupations. No signs, banners, or identification may be placed on the property. Media advertisements (websites, print, social media) for Type A businesses may not include the residential property address. Type B home occupations have no explicit sign allowance either. Marietta's downtown sign district has separate, more restrictive commercial sign regulations. Business operators working from home should use a P.O. Box or business address for advertising.
Sign violation: $50 to $250. Removal required within notice period. Daily fines for non-compliance.
