   (a)   The use must be conducted entirely within the dwelling by a member of the immediate family residing on the premises. No persons outside of the immediate family members will assist or be employed. No more than 25 percent of the floor space within the dwelling may be used in connection with such occupation.
   (b)   No chemical equipment or product shall be used except those which are normally used for purely domestic or household purposes. No equipment or process shall be used in such home occupation which creates noise, noxious odors, glare, fumes or other nuisance or electrical or mechanical interference detectable to the normal senses off the lot, if the occupation is conducted in a single-family housing unit, or outside the housing unit if conducted in other than a single-family housing unit. In the case of electrical interference, no equipment or process shall be used which creates visual or audible interference in any radio or television receivers off the premises, or causes fluctuations in line voltage off the premises. No equipment or process shall be used which creates electromagnet disturbances off the premises.
   (c)   No commodity or product display shall be visible from the exterior of the dwelling.
   (d)   There shall be no change in the outside appearance of the building or premises, or other visible evidence of the conduct of such home occupation, including, without limitation, the displaying of any type of sign.
   (e)   The activity involved shall not noticeably detract from the outward residential character of the neighborhood.
   (f)   Pedestrian traffic, vehicle traffic, and any other activity associated with a home occupation shall not significantly disrupt the peace and tranquility of the residential neighborhood.
   (g)   Any equipment is to be stored inside an enclosed shelter, shed or garage. There shall be no outside storage.
   (h)   If, at any time there is any noncompliance with the provisions of this chapter relating to limited home occupations, then the zoning official will serve notice of violation and order to cease.
   (i)   A property owner proposing a home occupation must first file an application for such proposed use with the zoning official and affirm that he has read and understands the provisions of this article.
