Missouri City prohibits signs, displays, or other visible evidence of a home occupation from being placed on residential property, preserving the residential appearance of neighborhoods.
The home occupation rules in Missouri City do not allow exterior signs, window displays, lighted advertising, or any other visible indication that a business is being conducted at the dwelling. The intent is to keep residential streets free from commercial signage. Standard address numbers and mailbox identification are still permitted, but business branding on the property is not.
Posting yard signs, window decals, or illuminated business signs on a residence can trigger code enforcement notices, removal orders, and fines under the zoning and sign code.
