Title 13 regarding the payment of Business Certificate Fees applies broadly to all commercial activities occurring in the City of Coronado, including professions, trades and occupations; and including activities where the official address of the business is outside of the City of Coronado. Institutions or organizations that are managed or conducted wholly for the benefit of charitable purposes or from which no profit is derived, either directly or indirectly, are exempt from paying the business certificate fee. This exemption, however, does not extend to other regulations or ordinances of the City of Coronado.
