Any licensee may apply to renew his or her license at expiration, provided he or she is qualified to receive a license and the premise for which such renewal license is sought is suitable for such purpose; and provided further that the renewal privilege shall not be construed as a vested right which shall in any case prevent the village from decreasing the number of licenses to be issued within the village. The original application filed by such licensee shall remain on file with the Commissioner and constitute an application for renewal provided that the licensee shall execute an affidavit each year declaring that his or her original application and all the information contained therein or supplied therewith is still true and correct, or is still true and correct in part, and in that event, the licensee shall specify in what respect the information contained in the original application or supporting documents is no longer accurate and shall supply correct information in that regard. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to prohibit the Commissioner from requiring any licensee to file a new application where the Commissioner deems that such filing is necessary to act upon the licensee's request for renewal. Failure to apply for renewal of a liquor license and to accompany such renewal application with an appropriate fee by the expiration date of the present valid liquor license may be considered by the Commission as a decision not to renew.
