Home-based businesses
Do you have a home occupation or home-based business? We are excited for you entrepreneurs and want you to be successful. However, we do need your help.
If you do have a home-based business or Home Occupation as described in 1274.09 of the codified ordinances, have you presented to Planning Commission for official approval? Not only does this process meet code, it shares your business with the community.
This is not a home office. Many of us have those and home offices are permitted. Home Occupations have activities associated with them and have some guidelines that need to be addressed. If you have any questions, please call Economic Development Department, 330-558-6875 or email gaungst@brunswick.oh.us.
