As it stands now, (1) the Occupational Tax is in effect at one half of one percent on all W2 payrolls in the county, and (2) every business will owe a one time $50 annual license.

Nighttime drinks and entertainment By Linda Waggener I didn't need a signed note to tell me raccoons had visited my back porch shelves on the coldest night of the year to date.
