Apply for a Garage, Flammables or Garage with Flammables License

How to Start

Step 3:

You application will simultaneously be reviewed by the following Departments:

• Traffic, Parking and Transportation (if applying for a garage), where they will verify the number of spaces in the registered parking inventory prior to proceeding.
• Parking and Transportation Demand Management Planning Office (if applying for a garage), to verify if the facility has received a commercial parking permit from the CPCC.
• If you are applying to amend a license, please do not include on the application that for which you are already licensed. However, you must include a copy of your current year license. 

Step 4:

The applicant must submit all forms and the signed plans to the License Commission though the online portal, and pay a $175 hearing and advertising fee. The License Commission will schedule the next available hearing and notify the applicant of the date.

Step 5:

Once the ad is published and prior to the hearing you must notify the abutters – which include the persons/businesses (the assessed owners of the properties) whose boundaries touch the boundaries of the premises (front, back, left and right), and any schools, churches or hospitals within 500 feet. You are required to bring a completed Affidavit of Notice to Abutters and Others along with the Certified Mail Receipts and Proof of Service Receipts to the hearing.

Step 6:

If the License Commission approves the application, the applicant must pay the license fee before the license is issued.
