Home Business Basics: Permits, Planning & Pathways to Growth

Los Alamos County Community Development Department is hosting a free public workshop titled “Home Business Basics: Permits, Planning & Pathways to Growth.” The workshop is designed to help aspiring and current home-based business owners navigate the steps to get started and stay compliant.

Topics include:

• What qualifies as a home occupation vs. home business
• Where and how these businesses are allowed
• Licensing, fees, and application steps
• Compliance standards like parking, signage, and employee limits

Attendees can ask questions during the presentation and speak with County staff afterward. A printed info packet with zoning, licensing, and contact details will be provided to in-person attendees. The packet and session recording will be posted online later.

This event is free and open to the public. For more information about starting a business, contact the Community Development Department at (505) 662-8120 or email CDD@lacnm.us. Additional information about starting a business can be found at lacnm.com/DoingBusiness.
