Full Breakdown
Sec. " Unlike the Town's general commercial sign rules in Article 6, which permit various sign types by district with or without a permit under Table 3, home occupations get no carve-out at all, not even a small nameplate. The rule sits alongside subsection E, which separately bars displaying merchandise so it is visible from outside the building, reinforcing that a home occupation in Pageland is meant to be invisible from the street. Because Sec. 4-6 conditions the entire home-occupation permission on meeting every listed requirement, posting any sign, whether a lawn sign, a window sign, or a mounted business sign, forfeits the home occupation's by-right status under the section and exposes the operator to a zoning violation enforceable by the Zoning Administrator, the official who administers Chapter 4 and the Zoning Ordinance generally.
Violations & Fines
Any sign posted for a home-based business, regardless of size, violates Sec. 4-6.D outright. Because the section requires compliance with all of its conditions for the use to remain a lawful home occupation, the Zoning Administrator can treat a signed home business as an unpermitted commercial use and require the sign's removal or the activity's cessation.
