B. Before the duplicate is issued, the holder shall make, and file with the City Clerk, an affidavit that the license has not been transferred, that it has been lost or destroyed without any wrongful act or connivance by the holder, and that, if believed lost, he has made diligent search for it and has been unable to find it.
C. The fee for every duplicate license issued, payable to the City Clerk, shall be two dollars fifty cents ($2.50).
