Plymouth, Minn., City Code § 410 § 410.41
Use of Rental Dwelling for a Home Occupation
Operative Text
A home occupation may be operated within a rental dwelling in compliance with City Code Section 21145 and as modified below: No more than one delivery to or shipment from a home in conjunction with the home occupation by a vehicle over 20,000 Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) shall be made per week (Sunday through Saturday) to the property.
Plymouth City Code § 410 § 410.41 addresses the operation of home-based businesses within rental dwellings. Such occupations are permitted, but subject to the general standards of City Code Section 21145 as well as an additional restriction: no more than one delivery or shipment involving a vehicle exceeding 20,000 pounds Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) may occur at the property in any given week (Sunday through Saturday). This rule limits the commercial traffic and activity that a home occupation can generate at a residential rental property.

Under Plymouth City Code § 410 § 410.41, landlords who allow tenants to operate home occupations in rental dwellings should be aware that such use is subject to both the baseline standards of City Code Section 21145 and the additional heavy-vehicle delivery restriction. Compliant operators typically monitor whether tenants' business activities generate large-vehicle traffic exceeding the one-delivery-per-week threshold. Lease terms and tenant communications often reflect these land-use limitations to help ensure the property remains in compliance with applicable city code.
