Newport Cracks Down on Unlicensed Businesses

Newport, OR business license fees were due by July 1. After giving a month for local businesses to come into compliance on their own, Community Service Officer Dustin Kittel has set out to enforce payment of licensing fees by unlicensed businesses.

Newport News Times reports, “Kittel said he is warning business owners they need to have a valid license from the city, but he is not issuing citations.” He does, however, issue citations to non-residents who have opened businesses in Newport without acquiring the necessary business licenses.

Kittel has been following this practice of warning business owners for the past two years and has found it to be effective in enforcing payment of business license fees.
