San Francisco County Municipal Code § 249.25 Body Art

(a) For license periods beginning before April 1, 2026, every body art facility shall pay a license fee of $1,372 per year, or for any portion of a year. Every person registered as a body art practitioner shall pay a license fee of $100. The fees shall be due annually on March 31, pursuant to Section 76.1, Article 2 of the San Francisco Business and Tax Regulations Code.* For license periods beginning on or after April 1, 2026, the annual license fees in this subsection shall be $0. (b) Beginning with Fiscal Year 2014-2015, the fee set forth in this Section 249.25 may be adjusted each year, without further action by the Board of Supervisors, as set forth in this Section. Not later than April 1, the Director shall report to the Controller the revenues generated by the fee for the prior fiscal year and the prior fiscal year’s costs of operation, as well as any other information that the Controller determines appropriate to the performance of the duties set forth in this Section. This subsection (b) shall only apply to fees for license periods beginning before April 1, 2026. (c) Not later than May 15, the Controller shall determine whether the current fee has produced or is projected to produce revenues sufficient to support the costs of providing the services for which the fee is assessed and that the fee will not produce revenue which is significantly more than the costs of providing the services for which the fee is assessed. The Controller shall, if necessary, adjust the fee upward or downward for the upcoming fiscal year as appropriate to ensure that the program recovers the costs of operation without producing revenue which is significantly more than such costs. The adjusted fee shall become operative on July 1. This subsection (c) shall only apply to fees for license periods beginning before April 1, 2026.
