The fire department does go out to properties to inspect before final approval will be granted for either a business license or for a building final.

Business License: a business license is required for every business that conduction operations within the Village Limits.

Once the formal application has been submitted to the Community Development at the Village Hall, call the fire prevention bureau to schedule an inspector to come out to look at the property. Please make sure to have the business ready as if it will be open before the inspection. Inspectors will look for the following items as a minimum.

Emergency lights and exit signs Knox box keys
Building egress and door locks Extension cords and power bars
Sprinkler coverage and obstructions Clearance to: electrical panels and heating appliances
Up to date fire extinguishers Housekeeping
