Frequently Asked Questions

There are many different types of businesses from preschools to dance studios to doctors offices and they all have different needs and requirements. In an effort to help new and perspective business owners get started, the City of Lake Mary created a program called the "First Step Process". This process allows the business owner or developer to meet with all the City departments (Zoning, Building, Fire, and Public Works) at once to have all their questions answered. You may call 407-585-1362 for additional information.
