The area saw eight professional licenses set to expire the week before.
Tow truck operator (incident management) is the most common professional license needing to be renewed.
The freedom of no corporate or state income tax makes Midland, like all Texas cities, an attractive place for business.
It was considered one of the best places to start a small business in all of the US.
Entrepreneur Susie Hitchcock-Hall, who launched a successful candy business in the early 90’s, said in an interview, “Midland’s the best place in the world to start a business because if you’re committed and stick with it, the community will support you 110 percent.”
A complete list of licenses set to expire in the week ending May 28 is provided below.
