I'm in the process of starting a business in the city. What would be my first steps?
The initial step would be to find out from the Planning Division what the zoning designation of the particular property is to determine if the proposed business is allowed by code in that particular zone. And if so, if there are any particular regulations or permits required.

If the new business includes a facade remodel or a business identification sign, then an architectural review will be required to ensure its conformance with the Zoning Code. Your business may also require a business license to operate within the City of Citrus Heights.
