Full Breakdown
4 folds signage into the broader rule against any exterior indication of a non-residential use. The provision allows a single exception: one non-illuminated sign not exceeding three square feet, attached to the building or placed in a window. Every other exterior clue that a home doubles as a business, whether a freestanding yard sign, a lit sign, a sign larger than three square feet, or a second sign in addition to the first, falls outside what the standard permits. A of letting residents earn income from home without any deleterious effect on the look and feel of the surrounding residential neighborhood.
Because the cap applies identically in every residential zoning district townwide, a home business in the Maricopa County portion of Queen Creek and one in the Pinal County portion face the exact same three-square-foot, non-illuminated, single-sign rule; the county line makes no difference here since it is a Town, not a county, standard.
Violations & Fines
Displaying more than one sign, a sign larger than three square feet, an illuminated sign, or any other exterior marketing indication at a home occupation violates Section 6.4.B.4 and is enforced as a Zoning Ordinance violation under Section 2.6.H: $250 for a first offense, $500 for a second within 12 months, and $2,000 for a third, with continuing violations counted day by day after a 14-day notice period.
