Verify Zoning Regulations

Before finalizing your business location or signing lease agreements, contact the City of Clovis’ Planning Department to determine the zoning designation of your proposed site.  All businesses must locate in areas that allow specific kinds of business activity.  Staff will help you determine if your business is an eligible use for a particular location and whether any special approvals are necessary. (559) 324-2340 or CLICK HERE
