House committee substitute to the 1st edition makes the following changes. Adds a new requirement to the definition of no-impact home-based business under new GS 160A-205.8 (preventing cities from barring such businesses within its jurisdiction, as described) so that the business activities do not involve the storage of merchandise, equipment, supplies, products, or materials outside of the premises.  Now prevents a municipality from requiring the owner or occupant of any building or structure subject to the Residential Building Code (was, owner of single-family detached residential dwelling or any residential dwelling with no more than two dwelling units) to install or equip the property with fire sprinklers as a condition of operating a no-impact home-based business.
