Simpler Renewal Process
Renewing a Globe business license could become a simpler process under a proposed Chapter 8 revision.
If your license hasn't expired or has been expired for less than 30 days, you would be able to renew without filling out a new application. You would just need to confirm that nothing has changed on your original application and pay the license fee.
The City is interested in hearing from local business owners. Send your comments or suggestions to City Council at council@globeaz.gov.

The City of Globe is exploring ways to make doing business in our community easier, and we want your input!
At last night’s Council Meeting, proposed updates to Chapter 8 of the City Code kicked off an important conversation about creating a more business-friendly Globe.
🌟 What's being considered?
✅ Fewer license requirements: New exemptions for certain home-based businesses, event vendors, salon chair renters, and out-of-town businesses.
✅ Simpler fees: Exploring a flat business license fee instead of the current scaled system.
✅ Easier renewals: Less paperwork for qualifying businesses. No changes? No drama!
✅ Streamlined special events: Clearer requirements and simpler processes for event organizers and vendors.
📌 IMPORTANT: These are proposals, NOT final decisions! No Chapter 8 changes have been adopted. A $135 flat fee was discussed as an example, but no fee amount has been approved. Applicable state, county, and other safety regulations would still apply.
💬 THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING!
We know our local business owners and vendors have valuable experiences and ideas to share. Your feedback will help shape a process that's simpler, clearer, and more welcoming to businesses of all sizes.
