Upon a finding by the Commissioner of Assessments and Licenses that an extraordinary demand upon any special occasion requires the use of more sight-seeing vehicles by any person, firm or corporation to whom there has been issued one (1) or more sight-seeing licenses for the calendar year, he or she may issue special permits for not to exceed twenty- four (24) hours upon the payment of a fee of one dollar ($1.00) each for the use of vehicles which are duly licensed for the transportation of persons for hire and which carry public liability insurance satisfactory to the Director of Law. No transfer of a license shall be permitted except with the consent of the Commissioner, which consent shall be endorsed on the original license. The Commissioner shall permit a transfer only when it appears that one (1) of the cars owned and operated by the licensee is retired, destroyed, demolished or otherwise rendered unfit for service.
