Food, Lodging, Body Art, and Recreational License Applications with Fees

The owner of a new or extensively remodeled business will need to fill out a Plan Review Application before filling out a License Application. All licenses expire on June 30th. After April 1st, new licenses are issued at the same price as an annual license. A pre-licensing inspection must be done before new business can open to the public.  

 

Retail Food Establishments

Food businesses are split into two categories: Serving Meals or Not Serving Meals, based on the 51-49 rule. If your business will sell mostly (51% or more) meals, like a restaurant would, then your business is a ‘Serving Meals’ business. Mobile Food Establishments have their own license applications below.

Lodging

Lodging facilities include Hotels, Motels, Tourist Rooming Houses, Bed & Breakfasts, and Campgrounds. New campgrounds or existing campgrounds adding new campsites will need to fill out the Plan Review Application first.

 

Pools

Pools include Indoor and Outdoor Swimming Pools, Whirlpools, Waterparks and other public water attractions.

 

Tattoo and Body Piercing

In addition to getting a license from Dunn County, tattoo and body art practitioners are also required to have personal licenses with the State of Wisconsin. 

  

Temporary Permits

Licenses are available for tented food stands, called Transient food operations, operating at a public event (fairs, festivals, etc.) by a non-exempt or for non-profit groups. Special Event Campgrounds are available for camping on-site at a public event (fairs, festivals, etc.). Contact us to help determine which license your group needs.
