The City of Pooler is streamlining its business licensing process to better serve our business community and ensure compliance with local zoning regulations.
Effective immediately, zoning verification is now a required first step prior to obtaining a business license. All applicants must confirm that their proposed business location complies with City zoning regulations before submitting a business license application.
City zoning regulations determine the types of businesses permitted at specific locations within Pooler. All businesses, including those operating from residential properties, are required to comply with applicable zoning requirements. Before purchasing, leasing, or occupying any property for business purposes, please contact the City’s Zoning Office to confirm that the proposed use is permitted at the selected location; completion of a Business Zoning Approval form may be required. Verifying zoning compliance in advance can help prevent delays in the business licensing process.
