First reading: referred to Committee on Local Government
Summary
The bill creates a new Indiana Code section that defines a “no impact home based business” and declares it a permitted use. Municipalities could not prohibit these businesses or force owners to obtain permits, licenses, variances, or other approvals, though they may enforce narrow health, safety and compatibility rules. It also bars requirements such as rezoning or installing fire sprinklers for qualifying businesses.
