Permit Exemptions

Maneuvering permitting requirements can be challenging and therefore we encourage business owners to contact us if uncertain whether your food business requires a permit from the Environmental Services Department.

Please check with all other jurisdictions (e.g. local building department, tax authority, etc.) to ensure compliance with their rules/regulations prior to operating any food establishment.
