Business Permits Made Simple
The California Environmental Protection Agency's Permit Assistance Centers have a
simple, direct mission: to maintain California's high environmental standards while
helping businesses with permit and compliance information from all levels of government.
To help, State of California has created an excellent one-stop business permit
assistance Web site. At the bottom of
these instructions, which we advise to briefly review, click on the "Enter CalGOLD
site now."
When you get to the site:
- Click on "Search CalGOLD for your Business
Permits." You'll see a
scroll-down menu from which you'll see the list of business types. Find your
business and hit "submit."
- Next will come up the "Select the County. The San Fernando
Valley is in Los Angeles County, so scroll to Los Angeles and hit "submit."
- You'll then be asked to select a city. If you need a business
permit in Burbank, Glendale, Calabasas or San Fernando, scroll to that city and hit
"submit." All other communities in the San Fernando Valley are part of the
City of Los Angeles, so you should select Los Angeles and hit "submit."
Based on the choices you've made, CalGOLD provides you with a list of required
business permits. The page displaying your results indicates contact information for
each of the agencies identified, including telephone, address, e-mail and Web links when
available.
