Before you apply for a business license, the City of Troutdale has to check that the business is allowed to operate on a property and/or within the building space. This web form is the first step in the business license process.
Please complete the web form below if your proposed business or activity will have a physical location in the city. If you are a contractor that is not establishing a physical location in Troutdale AND whose business is based outside the city, you do not need to complete this web form.
This form is used by the City's Community Development Department to determine if your business requires any permits or approvals from the department prior to a business license being applied for and issued.
Information filled out below will be sent to the department to begin the review. Department staff will contact you within 3-5 business days with an update on next steps.
