Course Description
Over the past two years, millions of Americans have shifted to working from home—indeed, more and more Americans are running an entire business out of their home. But what exactly are home-based businesses? Who runs them, and what kinds of business do they do? How are they typically regulated under zoning? And how are municipalities and states across the country reforming zoning ordinances in response to the changing nature of work? This course answers these questions and more while providing direct actionable steps for planners.
