Do I need to get inspections for my business?

After you pay your business tax, the business must be inspected by the Fire Department to meet all applicable state and city code requirements for Commercial Business location only. 

You will be contacted to make arrangements for your inspection.  The Fire Inspector receives a listing of new businesses that have registered with the city at the end of each month and your location will be inspected approximately 3-6 weeks after you are open.
