Raymond permits home-based businesses in residential zones subject to local zoning restrictions. Home occupations must be clearly secondary to the residential use of the property.
Raymond regulates home-based businesses through zoning ordinances under MS Code Ann. §21-19-1 and §17-1-1 et seq. (zoning enabling legislation). Home occupations must be incidental to residential use and conducted entirely within the dwelling. Common requirements include no employees other than household members, no external signage, no retail sales on premises, and no storage of hazardous materials. The business must not generate noise, traffic, or emissions beyond normal residential levels. A home occupation permit or business license is typically required from Raymond. Mississippi municipalities may distinguish between minor home occupations (no permit) and major home occupations (permit required). Professional services, online businesses, and consulting are commonly approved home businesses.
Operating without permit: $100 to $300 fine. Zoning violation notice with 30-day compliance window. Continued violations may result in business cease-and-desist order.
