If more than one organization applies for a permit to solicit charitable contributions on the same date and at the same location, the committee on finance shall resolve the conflict. Preference shall be given to organizations whose fundraising activities are well recognized, so as to promote the efficiency and coordination of such activities. Any organization which has engaged in solicitation of charitable contributions on the public way in the same manner and at the same approximate time of year for five consecutive years shall be permitted to select its dates one year in advance of actual solicitation. The committee may offer alternate dates and/or sites as a means of resolving conflicts.
