(a) A panoram license shall be valid for one year, unless sooner canceled, suspended, or revoked.
The one-year period shall be measured from the date the license was issued or last renewed, as the case may be. When a license is suspended, time shall continue to toll for measuring the period of that license’s validity.
(b) Not more than 60, but not less than 30, days before the expiration of a license, the licensee may apply for renewal. The director of budget and fiscal services shall review the renewal application in the same manner as a new license application.
The director shall approve the renewal application if finding that:
(1) The panoram business will continue to comply with the conditions of § 34-8.3(c)(1), (c)(2), and (c)(3);
(2) The applicant has complied with the conditions of § 34-8.3(c)(4) and (c)(5) with respect to the renewal application; and
(3) The license sought to be renewed has not been suspended for a period encompassing its expiration date.
An approved renewal shall be effective on the day after the license’s expiration date.
If the director finds noncompliance with subdivision (1), (2), or (3), the renewal application shall be denied.
(c) The director’s decision regarding a renewal application shall be rendered within 30 days of the filing of the application. If a decision is not rendered within the 30-day period, the renewal shall be deemed denied.
(d) The director of budget and fiscal services shall charge a renewal fee for each license renewal. The renewal fee amount shall be set by the director.
The licensee whose license is renewed shall pay the fee before the effective date of the renewal. If not paid by that date, the director shall suspend the renewal until the licensee pays the fee.
(e) A license which is not renewed by its expiration date shall be invalid from the day after that date. If desiring to conduct a panoram business at the location specified in an invalidated license, a person shall be required to apply for and receive a new license.
