(A) Application; issuance.
(1) It is unlawful to establish, maintain, or operate any mobile home park in the city without first having obtained a license therefor. Application for such licenses shall be made in writing to the Clerk in compliance with the ordinances relating to license applications, and shall contain the name of the applicant, the location of the proposed park, and the number of mobile homes to be accommodated, provided that a license shall be issued only if the proposed mobile home park will accommodate ten or more mobile homes.
(2) Such license shall expire April 30 of each year and a new license shall be issued upon proper application and payment of the annual license fee, provided the applicant is in substantial compliance with the rules and regulations of the State Department of Public Health and the ordinances of this city insofar as they pertain to mobile home parks.
(1978 Code, § 5.20.020)
(B) Fee; maximum fee designated; fee prorated. The annual fee for such licenses shall be $25 plus $2 for each mobile home space over ten for which accommodations exist; provided, however, that the annual license fee shall not exceed $50. If the number is increased, this shall be reported to the Clerk, and the additional fee, if any, necessitated by such increase shall be paid before the additional spaces are put to use. When a license is applied for, or accommodations are increased during the license year, the fee shall be prorated on the basis of the number of months remaining in the license year.
(1978 Code, § 5.20.040)
(C) Good character required. No such license shall be issued to any but a person of good character, nor to any corporation if any officer thereof is not a person of good character.
