Licensing & Permits
Administrative Licensing & Permits
The Administration Department handles applications for licenses or permits related to liquor, public events, food trucks, gambling, solicitors, public facility rentals, chickens, burning, and more.
Building Permits (Residential & Commercial)
The Building Department handles applications for modifications to buildings and property (decks, fences, reroofing, etc.), and building review/inspections within the City of Delano.
Background Check Reminder
Because many of licenses require background investigations and/or City Council approval, we recommend that you submit your application and payment 30 days* prior to when you want to begin your activity. The city does not issue general business licenses.
Liquor License Reminder
Liquor license applications, with the exception of temporary liquor licenses, require a background check. The city's license period is from July 1 through June 31. If you are applying for a license that is less than the 12-month period, some of the license fees can be prorated. Please submit your application, background check and liquor license fee at least 60 days prior to when you desire to start serving liquor. Learn more about liquor licenses
