§ 110.26 AUCTIONEERS AND CRIERS AT AUCTIONS.
   (A)   It shall be unlawful for any person to sell any goods or other property as auctioneer within the limits of the city without first obtaining a city license therefor from the City Clerk; provided, that it shall not be necessary for any bona fide resident of the city to employ a licensed auctioneer to sell his or her own property or livestock or farming implements.
   (B)   Any person acting as crier for an auctioneer at any public sale shall be deemed, taken and treated as an auctioneer, within the purview of this section.
   (C)   Any person desiring to obtain an auctioneer’s license shall apply to the City Clerk, and, upon satisfying the City Clerk that he or she has met the requirements of M.S. Chapter 330, as it may be amended from time to time, and has a currently valid state auctioneer’s license and upon payment of the city license fee in an amount as the City Council may determine from time to time by resolution, the City Clerk shall issue to him or her a license which shall be valid for the term of one year from the time of issuance. Any person desiring to obtain an auctioneer’s license for a period of less than one year may do so in the same manner as hereinbefore set forth and shall be issued a license by the City Clerk showing the period of time that the license is effective before expiration and by paying the City Clerk a license fee in the amount as the City Council may determine from time to time by resolution.
