If any person conducts any activity or exercises any privilege for which the payment of a license or permit fee or tax is required by the Codified Ordinances, without first paying such fee or tax, he shall, in addition to paying the fee or tax required for such activity or privileges, pay a late filing penalty of ten percent (10%) of the regular fee for each month or fraction of a month that he has been in default. Such late filing penalty shall be deemed a license penalty, and shall be assessed and collected in the manner provided in the Codified Ordinances, except that the certificate shall state separately thereon the amount paid as regular fee and the amount paid as a late filing penalty.
(1977 Code Sec. 31.09.)
(a) Any person holding a license or permit may, except as otherwise provided in the Codified Ordinances, apply to the issuing authority to have such license or permit assigned to another person or transferred to another premises, for the unexpired term thereof; provided, that no assignment or transfer shall be made of any license or permit which is personal in its nature. No transfer to another premises shall be made without prior certification by an officer whose certification was required in the first instance.
(b) For each such assignment or transfer a certificate fee shall be charged, and in addition thereto, a certification fee of one dollar ($1.00) shall be charged for each new certification required. No license or permit which has been suspended or revoked shall be assignable or transferable. On each assignment or transfer, a new certificate shall be issued and the old certificate shall be filed with its original record.
(1977 Code Sec. 31.11.)
(a) Any license or permit issued by the City may be revoked, suspended or altered, for cause, by Council, the City Manager or the City Licensing Officer. Upon such revocation, suspension or alteration, the City shall not be required to make any refund. Licenses and permits revoked, suspended or altered by the City Manager or City Licensing Officer shall be reviewable by Council if the person affected thereby applies to the City Clerk in writing for a hearing within thirty days after notice given of the act complained of, and the action of Council shall be final.
(b) "Cause" as used in this section includes the doing or omitting of any act, or permitting any condition to exist in connection with any activity or privilege for which a license or permission is held, when such is:
(1) Contrary to the health, morals, safety or welfare of the public.
(2) Unlawful, irregular or fraudulent in nature.
(3) Unauthorized or beyond the scope of the license or permit granted.
(4) Contrary to any provision of the Codified Ordinances or any lawful and duly promulgated rule or regulation of any City officer applicable to the subject matter for which such license or permit has been granted.
(1977 Code Sec. 31.12.)
Any person who knowingly makes a false statement to any officer of the City for the purpose of obtaining a license or permit, or for the purpose of assisting another to obtain a license or permit, and any person who procures, or attempts to procure, or who assists, or attempts to assist, another in procuring a license or permit by means of deceit, wilful misrepresentation or willful concealment of a material fact, shall be guilty of an offense, and upon conviction thereof, if any license or permit has been issued, it shall become null and void, and no refund shall be made.
(1977 Code Sec. 31.13.)
The granting of a license or permit to any person to carry on an activity or to exercise a privilege which contains within itself, or is composed of, activities or privileges which are required to be licensed, shall not relieve the person to whom such license or permit is granted from the necessity of procuring separate licenses or permits for each activity or privilege, except as may otherwise be provided.
(1977 Code Sec. 31.14.)
Unless otherwise provided by statute, no State license or permit shall exempt any person from the license or permit requirements of the Codified Ordinances, nor shall the issuance of any State license or permit be deemed to require the City to issue a similar license or permit contrary to the provisions of the Codified Ordinances.
(1977 Code Sec. 31.15)
