Do I need a contractor's license for a right-of-way project?

Yes, any contractor or subcontractor doing work within the City of Rolling Meadows must have an active contractor license with the City of Rolling Meadows before any work commences. This is also needed for companies doing work for utilities under franchise agreements as well.  The contractor’s licenses may be obtained by going to the Community Development Division and filing the appropriate paperwork before any work commences.
