§ 18-204 REGULATIONS OF HOLDING TANK WASTE DISPOSAL.
   (A)   Permit. No person, firm, associate or corporation shall clean out, drain, or flush any septic tank or any other type of wastewater or excreta disposal system, unless the person, firm, association or corporation obtains a permit from the city to perform the acts or services. Any person, firm, association or corporation desiring a permit to perform the services shall file an application on the prescribed form. Upon any application, the permit shall be issued by the City Manager when the conditions of this chapter have been met and providing the City Manager is satisfied the applicant has adequate and proper equipment to perform the services contemplated in a safe and competent manner.
   (B)   Fees. For each permit issued under the provisions of this chapter, an annual service charge therefore shall be paid to the city to be set as specified in § 18-209. Any the permit granted shall be for one full fiscal year or fraction of the fiscal year, and shall continue in full force and effect from the time issued until the ending of the fiscal year, unless sooner revoked, and shall be non-transferable. The number of the permit granted hereunder shall be plainly painted on each side of each motor vehicle used in the conduct of the business permitted hereunder.
   (C)   Designated disposal locations. The City Manager shall designate approved locations for the emptying and cleansing of all equipment used in the performance of the services rendered under the permit herein provided for, and it shall be a violation hereof for any person, firm, association or corporation to empty or clean the equipment at any place other than a place so designated.
   (D)   Revocation of permit. Failure to comply with all the provisions of this chapter shall be sufficient cause for the revocation of the permit by the City Manager. The possession within the service area, by any reason, of any motor vehicle equipped with a body type and accessories of a nature and design capable of serving a septic tank or wastewater or excreta disposal system cleaning shall be prima facie evidence that the person is engaged in the business of cleaning, draining or flushing septic tanks or other wastewater or excreta disposal systems within the service area of the city.
