California doesn't necessarily require all businesses (of any structure) to obtain a license. While the state doesn't issue or require a business operating license, it regulates and requires licenses or permits for some business activities.
The County Ordinance requires that you obtain a license for conducting business within the unincorporated areas, - even if your business is located outside our limits or you have a business license from another city.
