§ 114.20  LICENSE EXPIRATION AND RENEWAL.
   (A)   Each license issued pursuant to this chapter shall expire one year from the date of issuance and may be renewed via application, as provided in this section.
      (1)   Application for renewal shall be made no more than 90 days, and no less than 30 days, before the expiration date.
      (2)   If application is made less than 30 days before the expiration date, the license will not be extended pending a decision on the application, but will expire on its normal expiration date.
   (B)   An application for renewal of a sexually oriented business license shall be submitted to the Building Commissioner on a form provided by the Building Commissioner.
      (1)   The renewal application may request, and the applicant shall provide, such information as reasonably necessary to enable the county to determine whether the applicant meets the qualifications established in this chapter.
      (2)   The completed renewal application shall describe any changes or additions to, or deletions from, the information provided in the applicant’s initial license application.
      (3)   The completed renewal application shall be accompanied by copies of any document or material submitted in connection with the initial license application that has been revised, or requires revision, to reflect any change in circumstances or conditions.
   (C)   Sketches or diagrams submitted with an initial sexually oriented business license application maybe resubmitted with subsequent renewal applications, provided that the applicant certifies, in writing, that the sketch or diagram still depicts the premises accurately.
   (D)   The Building Commissioner shall make determinations concerning the approval of license renewals based on the same criteria used to evaluate applications for new licenses under this chapter. The Building Commissioner shall advise the applicant, in writing, of the reason(s) for any denial of a license renewal.
   (E)   When the county denies an application for renewal of a license, the applicant shall not be issued another license for one year from the date of denial. If the county finds, subsequent to denial, that the basis for denial of the renewal license has been corrected or abated, the applicant may be granted a license if at least 90 days have elapsed since the denial was issued.
