What are some tips for starting a business in Vista?
After selecting a site, determine zoning requirements prior to signing a lease or contract by contacting the City of Vista’s Planning Division at 760.639.6100. The Planning Division can assist you in receiving information of the status of your location if you have the proposed business address and a description of the business. The Planning Division will also assist in determining which special permits are required for specific business types. Anyone doing business in the City of Vista must have a business license. You will need your business address, type of business, and zoning clearance from the Planning Division. An application can be obtained by visiting the City of Vista’s Finance Department.
