About 40 Salt Lake County companies that were tardy last year in renewing business licenses could receive relief from late-payment penalties.
The County Council decided this week to give those companies a chance to document their compliance history and to show that they missed last year’s deadline because the county changed the timing of its renewal process.
Business-license fees vary, based on the nature of the company, the number of employees, ownership of commercial vehicles and other factors. Late fees may range from 25 percent to 100 percent, depending on how much time has elapsed since the deadline. Salt Lake Tribune
