Starting a Business
First and foremost...
Thank you for choosing the City of Harrah as the home of your new business! Let’s get started!
Step 1: Find a Business Address
Determine a location for your business.
Once you have a particular location in mind, you need to determine what zoning district the property is located in. You can find this out by looking up the address on the City of Harrah's Zoning Map.
Various zones allow and prohibit different uses - once you know the zone, you can view the Zoning Regulations to find out if your business is allowed in a particular zone. Be sure to also look at the section referenced for that Zoning District and use to ensure no use-specific conditions apply that might otherwise prevent your proposal.
Step 2: Call City Hall
Call City Hall at 405-454-2951 to verify zoning use before signing a lease at your desired business location.
Once you have confirmed the zoning of your property, visit the City of Harrah's Permits and Application page and apply for a Business License.
