The City of Lake Forest does not require or issue business licenses. Instead, we ask businesses to complete a voluntary, no cost Business Registration Form that assists the City in maintaining vital records, emergency contact information and a business mailing list for future announcements of free business seminars and workshops. In lieu of a business license, most lenders, clients or other third parties will accept a copy of the City's letter explaining that business licenses are not issued in our community.
