ARTICLE IV. - CHRISTMAS TREE SALES
Sec. 12-111. - License required.
   It shall be unlawful for any person to engage in the business of selling Christmas trees in the city, or operate a building or yard where Christmas trees are sold at retail in the city, without first obtaining a license therefor; provided, however, no license will be required for the sale of Christmas trees by any religious or charitable organization for the purpose of raising money for religious or charitable purposes.
(Ord. No. 81-98, § 1, 11-4-81)
Sec. 12-112. - Application.
   Application for a license required by this article shall be made in writing to the city clerk, on forms to be provided. The application shall be signed by the applicant and shall set forth the name and address of the person proposing to engage in such business and, if the applicant is a corporation, the names and addresses of the officers of such corporation. The application shall also set forth the location of the premises where Christmas trees will be sold, and proof shall be furnished that the person to whom such license is to be issued is the holder of a sales tax license, as required by the provisions of Act No. 167 of the Public Acts of Michigan of 1933 (MCL 205.51 et seq., MSA 7.521 et seq.), as amended.
(Ord. No. 81-98, § 2, 11-4-81)
Sec. 12-113. - Fees.
   The applicant for a license under this article shall pay a license fee for each location where the sale of Christmas trees is conducted, and the license fee is maintained in Section 12-6 of this Chapter. Such applicant shall also make a cash deposit with the city of $150.00 for each location for the purpose of guaranteeing the cleaning up of the premises and removal of any unsold trees or debris therefrom within 15 days after Christmas of the year in which the permit was taken out. Merchants and property owners who pay personal property taxes to the city and sell Christmas trees on a lot adjacent to their place of business will be granted a license for one-third of the total fee in Section 12-6 of this Chapter.
