Building Contractors

If you are a Contractor doing work that requires a building permit in Tiburon, your Business License, and Business License fees, will be included in the building permit issued by the Building Division.  If you are a sub-contractor doing work covered by a building permit issued to someone else (e.g. General Contractor or homeowner), you do not need an additional Business License.
