Starting April 1, 2025, Benicia businesses and contractors earning $10,000 or less per year will not have to pay City business license tax fees. The temporary suspension, approved by the City Council, will remain in effect through January 31, 2027.
The Economic Development Division is conducting a brief 2-minute business questionnaire to gather your feedback. Your insights will directly help the City prioritize projects and initiatives that support our local businesses, improve public spaces, and ensure a vibrant, welcoming downtown.
Developers, builders and businesses seeking information about required permits, fees, and zoning have a new resource: GoBenicia.org.
