It shall be unlawful for any person owning or operating a filling station to permit any person other than himself or an employee to dispense flammable and combustible liquids used as motor fuels in a filling station except pursuant to regulations issued by the commissioner. Such regulations shall provide for safety in the dispensing of such motor fuels and for fairness in price, in the disclosure of price and service; provided, however, that such regulations will not require that full- service dispensing equipment also be maintained on the station premises.
Any person violating any of the provisions of this section shall be fined not less than $100.00 nor more than $300.00 for the first offense and not less than $300.00 nor more than $500.00 for the second and each subsequent offense in any 180-day period. Each violation of this section shall be considered a separate and distinct offense and shall be regarded as being committed on each day on which such person shall continue or permit any such violation. In addition to any fine provided herein, violation of this section may be grounds for revocation of any license or permit issued by the City of Chicago to any such violator.
