Baldwin County, Georgia

Milledgeville websites for Baldwin County contractors

Milledgeville prices its business license by projected gross receipts, and Planning & Zoning signs off before the Business Office takes payment.

Licensed through City Hall

Milledgeville is the Baldwin County seat, and an Occupation Tax License, the city's name for a business license, starts at the Business Office on the ground floor of City Hall, 119 E. Hancock Street, across from the post office. The application is also posted under Forms on the city website.

A finished application does not stay there: you carry it to the Planning & Zoning Department in the Economic Development Center at 105 E. Hancock Street for approval. Only after that sign-off does the Business Office calculate your fee and accept payment.

Fees follow gross receipts. A brand-new company projects its first-year receipts, or the part of a year it will operate, into the ranges printed with the application. In later years the city mails a renewal notice and bases the fee on last year's actual receipts instead of a projection.

The Business Office is open weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and its main line is (478) 414-4010. A licensing clerk who also handles property taxes sits in that office, so a contractor who owns a shop in town can sort out both bills in one visit.
