Home Occupation
by Conditional Use Permit
Walla Walla County Code 17.08.260
What is a Home Occupation?
The Walla Walla County Zoning Code
(WWCC Title 17) defines Home Occupation
as follows: "Home Occupation" means an
occupation customarily conducted entirely
within a dwelling and carried on by the
inhabitants thereof, which use is clearly
incidental and secondary to the dwelling for
dwelling purposes and does not change the
character thereof; provided, the use does
not involve more than one-fifth or not more
than two hundred square feet of the total
square footage of the dwelling.
How do I obtain a Home Occupation
permit?
Submit a Conditional Use Permit for Home
Occupation application that includes all the
information listed on the form (available at
the Community Development Department).
The current application fee is $50, due upon
application and payable to Walla Walla
County. Applications are approved
administratively at the staff level. Staff will
review the application, the criteria for
granting a Home Occupation (as listed
below), and all other relevant information.
The approval process typically takes 1 0-1 5
days and does not include a public hearing
or public notice requirement.
Home Occupations must meet the
following criteria:
. The occupation or profession shall
be carried on entirely within the
principle dwelling.
.
Not more than one person outside
the family living in the house shall be
employed by the home occupation.
.
There shall be no exterior display,
no exterior signs, no exterior storage
of materials and no other exterior
indication of the home occupation or
anything else that would vary from
the residential character of the
principle building. No special
equipment that is different from
normal residential equipment shall
be installed, and no offensive noise,
vibration, smoke, dust, odors, heat
or glare shall be produced as a
result of the business activity.
For example, home occupations may
include the following: art studio,
dressmaking, professional offices of a
dentist, lawyer, physician, engineer,
architect, planner, accountant, secretarial
service, and music or dancing instruction
limited to four pupils at a time. The zoning
code specifically prohibits approval of
commercial stables, kennels, or restaurants.
The establishment of a home occupation
shall require approval by the Department
and may be revoked upon finding that these
regulations have been violated.

Community Development for specific details regarding current information.
