519.03 LICENSE APPLICATION; INVESTIGATION AND ISSUANCE; FEE AND TERM.
   An application for a dance hall license shall be made to the Mayor by the owner or tenant of the real property desired to be used as a public dance hall. The form of application shall be obtained from the Office of the Mayor. Such application shall state: the street address of the proposed public dance hall; the name and residence address of an individual applicant, and of each member of a firm or partnership applicant, and of each officer of a corporate applicant; the name and residence address of the manager of such dance hall, if any; and the mailing address of the applicant. The application shall be accompanied by a plat showing the relationship of the proposed public dance hall to adjacent premises and buildings, and showing the location, size and arrangement of all rooms, entrances, exits and facilities in or pertaining to the proposed public dance hall. Upon the filing of such application, the Building Inspector, the Fire Chief and the Police Chief shall make or cause to be made an investigation of the applicant and the proposed public dance hall, and submit the reports of their investigation to the Director of Public Safety, who shall transmit the reports to the Mayor with a recommendation for the approval or disapproval of such application by the Mayor. The application shall not be approved if the reports submitted show that the applicant or any person named in the application is not of good moral character, or that a dance hall license issued to the applicant or any person named in the application has within the six months immediately preceding the filing of such application been revoked by the Mayor in accordance with Section 519.04, or that the proposed public dance hall does not comply with all applicable State statutes, City ordinances and regulations governing sanitation, health, safety and fire prevention, or that it is not properly ventilated and supplied with separate and convenient toilet facilities for each sex, or that it is not a safe place for the purpose for which it is contemplated to be used. If the Mayor approves an application for a dance hall license, he shall issue such license upon payment of a license fee of fifty dollars ($50.00), which shall be paid into the General Fund. Each dance hall license shall expire on the last day of the twelfth month following the month in which such license is issued, or earlier upon the licensee's ceasing to be the owner or tenant of the real property for which such license is issued.
