If any operator required to file returns and to remit tax due to the City under the provisions of this chapter fails for any reason to make such filing or payment, any of its officers or employees having control or supervision of or charged with the responsibility of filing returns and making payments shall be personally liable for such failure. The dissolution of a corporation shall not discharge an officer's or employee's liability for a prior failure of the corporation to file returns or remit tax due. Returns and payments are due immediately upon cessation of business for any reason. The sum due for such liability may be collected by assessment in the manner provided in this chapter. Any person owing money to the City under the provisions of this chapter shall be liable to an action brought in the name of the City for recovery of the amount due, plus assessments, together with the cost of this action, taxed and to be taxed.
