The purpose of a home occupation is to allow certain activities to be undertaken for gain or profit within a dwelling or a building accessory to a dwelling in any zone in which dwellings are present. The home occupation shall be conducted by a resident of the dwelling unit and is to be conducted in such a manner that the residence shall not differ from its residential character either by the use of colors, materials, construction, lighting, signs or the emissions of sounds, noises, vibrations or odors, or result in traffic impacts that are inconsistent with the character of the area in which the home occupation is located. (Ord. 6141 § 1, 2007; Ord. 4229 § 2, 1987.)
