James Burgess for Ashburn City Council

Sec. 22-74Serving food

Last changed 2011
Plain English: what this chapter covers

This is the chapter for anyone running a business in town: the yearly occupation tax (the city's business license), plus special rules for pawn shops, phone companies, arcades and coin-operated machines, fireworks stands, food trucks, and permits for special events on city property like festivals, parades and big cookouts in the park. Several parts are fairly recent (2015-2025), but some, like the pawnshop rules, are older and still describe paper record books.

If food is served, the applicant shall have a valid health certificate issued by the Turner County Health Department before any license to serve food can be issued.
