Camarillo Zoning Restrictions Rules (2026): What You Need to Know

Camarillo's home occupation regulations under Chapter 19.65 are among the stricter in Ventura County. A Home Occupation Permit is required for any business activity conducted from a residence. The code includes a lengthy list of prohibited uses — these include auto repair, food manufacturing, hair salons with walk-in clients, and businesses requiring client visits. Permitted home occupations must not alter the residential character of the property, generate business-related vehicle traffic, employ non-residents working on-site, use exterior signage, or store commercial inventory visibly on the property. The city may conduct follow-up inspections after permit issuance.
