(A) Each grease trap sludge removal and transportation license required by this subchapter shall be terminated on January 1 next following its issuance. No part of a license fee will be refunded if the license is revoked by the City Clerk.
(B) Any licensee may retain his or her grease trap sludge removal and transportation license at the expiration thereof, provided that he or she is then qualified to receive a license and the premises and the equipment for which the renewal license is sought are suitable for such purpose, and provided, further, that the renewal privilege herein provided shall not be construed as a vested right which shall in any case prevent the Mayor and City Council from decreasing the number of licenses to be issued within its jurisdiction.
