The Dawson County Board of Commissioners on July 16 approved an amendment to Chapter 30 and readopted an amended Community Development fee schedule to set uniform occupational tax and licensing charges.
Under the approved schedule the county lists a $100 flat fee for home and seasonal businesses, a $200 flat fee for commercial companies with 1–9 employees, and $200 plus $15 per full‑time employee for commercial companies with 10 or more employees. The amendment was presented by Community Development Director Richard Osborne and approved by a 3‑0 vote.
Board members framed the change as an administrative update to clarify licensing charges and to align fee expectations for new and existing businesses. The hearing drew no public speakers and the board moved to adopt the ordinance amendment after the readvertised third hearing.
