## Report a maintenance problem

For a repair in your suite, the shared areas or the parking lot, send the [maintenance request form](https://canyonspringsmarketplace.com/maintenance/). It goes to the property and its maintenance contacts, and it takes up to five photos of the problem. The page also has a QR code and a printable card for your back room. For fire, smoke, a gas smell, flooding or anything dangerous, call 911 first.

## Get found online

Use the same business name, and the same address with the suite number, everywhere your business appears. Google asks that a profile name reflect "your business's real-world name, as used consistently on your storefront, website, stationery, and as known to customers," and it asks you to enter a suite number as "Address Line 2." The suite matters here because four businesses share 1357 Blue Lakes Blvd N, and delivery drivers and map apps need it to find the right door.

To ask the Marketplace to add or correct your entry in this site's directory, email [wattes7@gmail.com](mailto:wattes7@gmail.com) with your business name, suite and website.

- [Google Business Profile](https://support.google.com/business/answer/2911778): add or claim your profile so customers can find you on Search and Maps, then [verify it](https://support.google.com/business/answer/7107242).

- [Bing Places for Business](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/bing/add-and-manage-your-business-listing): claim or update your Bing listing.

## Open or move a business in Twin Falls

The City of Twin Falls says all businesses need to register with the Idaho Secretary of State and that a business "may also need an Idaho Sales/Use Tax number." The Idaho State Tax Commission lays out the order: register the business and any assumed business names with the Secretary of State, get a federal Employer Identification Number from the IRS if you need one, then apply for state tax permits through the Idaho Business Registration application.

The state's business site notes that registering a business name is not a business license, and that business licenses come from city or county clerks. The City's [business regulations page](https://forms.tfid.org/Forms/BusinessResources) has a checklist of business types that have City rules; ask the City whether yours needs a City license.

- [Idaho Secretary of State, Starting a Business](https://sos.idaho.gov/business-resources/): business forms and filings through SOSBiz.
- [Idaho State Tax Commission, Getting Tax Permits](https://tax.idaho.gov/online-services/business-registration/): seller's permits and, if you have employees, withholding and employer permits through the Idaho Business Registration application.
- [Business.Idaho.gov](https://business.idaho.gov/): a four-question tool that lists the federal, state and local agencies you may need.

## City permits, signs and inspections

The City's Building Safety Department says new commercial structures, remodels and additions need permits, that all electrical, plumbing, mechanical and gas work must be permitted, and that signs must be permitted. Its permitting staff also issue certificates of occupancy for commercial structures. Start with its [permit requirements](https://www.tfid.org/215/Permit-Requirements) and its [applications, forms and fees](https://www.tfid.org/439/Permit-Page), and ask Building Safety before you start any work.

The City's zoning map records the Marketplace parcel in the Commercial district (COM), which the City describes as a district for "a wide range of retail, service, and office uses." [Planning and Zoning](https://www.tfid.org/175/Planning-and-Zoning) reviews building permit requests and strongly advises a project coordination meeting before you apply for a zoning permit, so ask it whether your use is allowed before you sign a lease.

The Twin Falls Fire Department [conducts fire code inspections](https://www.tfid.org/164/Fire) of local businesses, so ask the City which inspections apply to your suite.

## Food service and trade licenses

South Central Public Health District serves Twin Falls County. It says its environmental health staff "Permit and inspect all regulated food establishments" and "Review plans for new and remodeled food establishments." Its steps for opening a food establishment say plans "must be submitted for review and approval before the start of construction," and that licenses are non-transferable and renewed every year in December.

The City says it requires all food service establishments to have kitchen fixtures connected to grease interceptors when there is new construction, redevelopment, tenant improvement, or a change in ownership or occupancy. Ask the City before you plan a kitchen.

For build-outs and installation work, the Idaho Contractors Board says anyone who works on a construction job worth more than two thousand dollars in materials and labor must register, unless an exemption applies. Its site lets you search for a registration.

- [South Central Public Health District, Food Protection](https://www.phd5.idaho.gov/food/): inspections, plan review and food safety contacts.
- [South Central Public Health District, Forms](https://www.phd5.idaho.gov/forms/): the food establishment license application, plan review form and steps to open.
- [City of Twin Falls, Preventing Fats, Oils and Grease in Sewer](https://www.tfid.org/887/Preventing-Fats-Oils-and-Grease-In-Sewer).
- [Idaho Contractors Board](https://dopl.idaho.gov/con/): contractor registration and registration search.

## Utilities and services

The City's parcel record for the Marketplace lists City water. The City's Utility Services office connects customers to water, sewer, garbage and recycling, and the City's utility pages link electricity to Idaho Power and natural gas to Intermountain Gas. Ask the property contact, or the utility, which accounts your suite needs in its own name.

- Water and sewer: the [City of Twin Falls utility services](https://www.tfid.org/190/Utility-Services) and [water and wastewater rates](https://www.tfid.org/211/Water-Wastewater-Rates).

It does not describe commercial pickup, so ask Utility Services or the property contact how pickup works for your suite.
