(B) The Clerk shall endeavor to notify each annual licensee of the expiration of time of the license held by the licensee at least 21 days prior to such expiration date; provided, however, that a failure to make such notification or the licensee’s failure to receive it, shall not exclude the licensee from the obligation to obtain a new license or a renewal.
