If a renewal license or registration application and fee is not received on or before May 1st of the renewal year, the license or registration shall expire, and the operation of the licensed or registered business shall be discontinued on the date of expiration and until a renewal application is processed and, if required, a new license is issued by the city.

(C) Renewal of a license may be denied pursuant to the procedures for revocation of a license set forth in § 110.99. When a renewal is denied, the applicant shall not be issued a license for one year after the date of the denial; provided that if, subsequent to the denial, the city finds that the basis for denying renewal of the license has been corrected or abated, the applicant may be granted a license.
