Planning FAQs - Can I run a home-based business from my property?

Answer

You can run a business from your house/dwelling without a planning permit, if it meets the 'Home Occupation' requirements specified in the South Gippsland Planning Scheme

 

A Planning Permit is not required for a 'Home Occupation' sign if the sign does not exceed 0.2 sqm in area and is not in an area included in the Heritage Overlay.

If the home occupation requirements cannot be met, the business will need to be operated from a suitable commercial area.
