About each permit

General Business License — City of Colorado Springs position

The City Clerk's Business Licensing page lists 12 city-licensed categories — concrete contractor, escort, bicycle-share, funeral escort, massage business, mobile food vendor, pawnbroker, pedal-cab, security, sexually oriented business, tree service and excavation — and names no general business license, so this record carries no fee unless a business falls into one of those categories (most at $110/year). The same page notes that liquor and marijuana are separate dual-jurisdiction, state-regulated licenses handled by the City Clerk's Office.

Salon / Barbershop — City Business Licensing Position (Colorado Springs)

The City Clerk's Business Licensing page lists 12 city-licensed categories and names no salon or barbershop license among them, so this record carries no fee for a salon or barbershop generally. A salon offering massage services would separately need the city's Massage Business license ($110/year), which is one of the 12 categories on that page.

Auto Repair — City Business Licensing Position (Colorado Springs)

The City Clerk's Business Licensing page lists 12 city-licensed categories (concrete contractor, escort, bicycle-share, funeral escort, massage business, mobile food vendor, pawnbroker, pedal-cab, security, sexually oriented business, tree service and excavation) and names no auto repair or auto body license among them, so this record carries no fee.

Mobile Food Vendor License

Late renewal is $55; a duplicate license is $5. Requires sign-off from El Paso County Public Health, City Planning/Land Use Review, and City Sales Tax. The City Clerk's Mobile Food Vendor Licensing page states that licenses are valid for one year from the date of issuance or renewal, and that applicants also file a copy of their health inspection and, if applicable, a trade name registration and certificate of good standing with the Colorado Secretary of State.
