Think about the aroma and sound of barking dog kennels, raising chickens and crowing roosters. Think about outdoor game butchering and boiling rendering. Think about auto engine repair and auto sound system installation testing. Think about outdoor saws and nail guns for custom wood panel manufacturing.

The home has traditionally been a place not just to live, but to work and support a family. This bill restores that balance by protecting low-impact home-based businesses while preserving local authority over real health and safety issues. It replaces arbitrary restrictions with clear, objective standards and ensures fair, complaint-based enforcement statewide. HB 1351 supports economic opportunity without harming neighborhoods, and I urge its passage.
