A. Qualification For Renewal: Any licensee may renew his license at the expiration thereof, provided he is then qualified to receive a license and the premises for which such renewal license is sought are suitable for such purpose; and provided further, that the renewal privilege herein provided for shall not be construed as a vested right which shall in any case prevent the village council from decreasing the number of licenses to be issued within its jurisdiction. No retailer's license shall be renewed if the department of revenue has reported to the Illinois liquor control commission that such retailer is delinquent in filing any required tax returns or paying any amounts owed to the state until the applicant is issued a certificate by the department of revenue stating that all delinquent returns or amounts owed have been paid by guaranteed remittance, or the payment agreement to pay all amounts owed has been accepted by the department. No retailer's license shall be renewed unless the applicant provides documentation that any tax owed to the village by the applicant has been satisfied by payment in the form of a cashier's check, certified check, money order, or cash. (2003 Code)
B. Application For Renewal: Applications for renewal of licenses shall be filed with the village clerk on or before the anniversary date of license issuance. The clerk shall report the names of all applicants for renewals of licenses to the mayor, together with the location of the place of business of the applicant, and the amount of license fees payable upon the renewal of the licenses, and whether or not any written complaint has been filed as to the manner in which the applicant for renewal of a license has carried on the business authorized thereby. All applications for renewals of licenses shall be referred by the clerk to the mayor, as in the case of applications for original licenses, and procedure for renewal thereof shall be as in the case of applications for original licenses.
