This session found no dedicated "home occupation" standard inside the Land Development Code: Chapter 4 (Zoning), Chapter 5 (Standards, including the full Sec. 505 accessory-use article), Chapter 7 (Use Regulations), and Chapter 8 (Development Standards of General Applicability) were fetched and searched live this session, and none contains a section titled or clearly governing home-based businesses. Sec. 405.23.3 (Home-Based and Common Area-Based Assembly Uses) governs home gatherings/assemblies (social, religious, or similar), not a home-based commercial occupation standard. A verifier session independently re-searched the full text of Sec. 405 (all subsections) live and confirmed the same result: no home-occupation or home-business standard exists anywhere in it. Because the LDC is silent, Florida's Home-Based Business Act, F.S. 559.955, sets a state-law floor that applies regardless: a local government may not require a business license or otherwise regulate a home-based business more strictly than other businesses if the business (1) has no employees working on-site other than residents of the dwelling plus up to two non-resident employees or contractors, (2) generates no more parking than a similar residence without a business, (3) is not visibly different from surrounding residential uses as viewed from the street and conducts retail sales only on-site, (4) remains secondary to the property's residential use, and (5) does not create a noise, smoke, fume, odor, or hazardous-material nuisance beyond what is allowed for a non-business residence. This floor does not override HOA or condominium association restrictions, or short-term/transient rental rules. Home-based business licensing itself, if any, most likely lives in the City's separate Code of Ordinances (business tax receipt/occupational license chapter), a different Municode product not fetched this session. Confirm with the Building, Planning and Zoning Department before operating a home-based business; do not assume the LDC's silence means no restriction applies, and do not assume the City can lawfully ban a qualifying home-based business outright given the F.S. 559.955 floor.
