Due to recent state legislation eliminating the ability of municipalities to assess privilege license taxes, the City of Burlington has changed its licensing process and schedule.

Existing Businesses:
As of June 30, 2015, businesses will no longer need a license, with the exception of beer/wine privilege license holders.

New Businesses:
At this time, the city will discontinue issuing new privilege licenses.
Zoning and Building requirements still apply to all businesses.

Exceptions:
Businesses that hold beer/wine privilege or taxi-cab licenses are not affected by the new state legislation and must still hold a license to operate in Burlington.
