Inglewood allows home-based businesses in residential zones through a home occupation permit. The business must be secondary to residential use, with no visible external evidence, no customer traffic, and limited employees.
Home occupations are allowed in Inglewood's residential zones subject to obtaining a home occupation permit. The business must be incidental to residential use and conducted entirely within the dwelling. There must be no external evidence of the business (no signs, no exterior storage). Customer or client visits to the home are generally not allowed. The business must not generate additional traffic, parking demand, or noise beyond normal residential levels. Only residents of the dwelling may be employed.
Operating a home business without a permit or in violation of conditions may result in revocation of the permit and code enforcement action.
