In the case of the death of the holder of a valid master license, the building official may issue a temporary master license to the firm or corporation if it employs a licensed Bellevue journeyman mechanical contractor. Such license shall be valid for a period of not more than six months and shall not be extended, nor shall any other temporary license be extended to another member of the firm or corporation during the grace period. Such temporary license shall be void if the company or corporation to which the license is assigned fails to keep in its employ an individual with a valid Bellevue journeyman’s license.
