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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I put up a sign for my home business in Pageland?
No. Sec. 4-6.D of the Zoning Ordinance states plainly that no signs shall be allowed for a home occupation, so even a small identifying sign is prohibited regardless of size or placement.
Does the sign ban apply to window displays too?
Home occupations are also barred from displaying merchandise visible from outside the building under Sec. 4-6.E, so a window display advertising the business runs into the same restriction as posting a sign.
