What are the rules?
If you want to set up a home business you need to consider:
- zoning - whether you can operate your business in your area
- if you need to modify your building to accommodate the business
- signage rules
- food handling requirements (if you are going to operate a food business)
- getting the appropriate licence to operate.
Start by speaking to one of our planners about zoning and checking with our licensing team if you need a licence to operate.
