Occupational Privilege Tax

The Occupational Privilege Tax has existed in Greenwood Village since January 1, 1980. The revenue from this tax is used exclusively for capital projects such as street improvements.  This revenue source is important to helping improve accessibility within the Village.

An Occupational Privilege Tax License must be obtained by all businesses with employees working within the village.  A one-time application fee of $10.00 is required at the time of licensing.  The tax consists of two portions, the employee portion and the employer portion. Both portions are $2.00 per month ($4.00 combined) and both apply when an employee earns $250.00 or more in a calendar month. The employer is responsible for reporting and remitting both portions of the tax.  Owners, partners and officers who are not paid a salary or commission are subject to only the employer portion of the tax.
