Welcome to our community! All businesses within the city limits either pay an annual business license or quarterly occupational tax (based on whether you have employees or not), AND a Net Profit Tax.
NO EMPLOYEES: A business license is $40.00 per year due on the start of business and then due each year by January 31, OR;
EMPLOYEES: The occupational tax is 1% of gross wages paid quarterly. Due 3o days after each quarter ends.
Net Profit is 1% on your annual net profit due April 15 each year.
Therefore, you will have 2 types of tax within the city. We are thrilled to have you start this new venture and are here to help in any way we can. Please call if you have any questions and please let us know of any changes or updates needed to the business information we have on file for you.
