   A.   License Year; Proration Prohibited: All annual licenses shall be operative and the license year for the village shall commence on January 1 of each year and shall terminate on December 31 of the same year, where no provision to the contrary is made. There shall be no proration of license fees for partial years.
   B.   Notification Of License Expiration: The village clerk shall notify all licensees of the village of the time of expiration of the license held by the licensee (if an annual) three (3) weeks prior to the date of such expiration. Provided, however, that a failure to make such notification, or the failure of the licensee to receive it, shall not excuse the licensee from the obligation to obtain a new license, or a renewal thereof, nor shall it be a defense in an action based upon operation without a license.
