The Tulsa County Zoning Code (2024) regulates home occupations in residential districts. Home businesses must be incidental to residential use. Agricultural operations in AG districts are broadly exempt from zoning restrictions. The Board of Adjustment may grant special exceptions for home occupations that exceed standard limits. Contact County Inspections for current requirements.
Tulsa County zoning permits home occupations in residential zones. A business license and/or home occupation permit is typically required. The business must be secondary to residential use. Common conditions: no external signage, no on-site employees, limited customer visits, no hazardous materials. Oklahoma Home Bakery Act (2013, amended 2018) allows sale of certain home-baked goods without a food license. HOAs may impose additional restrictions.
Operating without permit: cease-and-desist order. Fines $50 to $500 per day. Business license penalties apply.
