Regulatory permits issued under this chapter shall expire on December 31st each year. Applications for renewal shall be made at least forty five (45) days prior to the expiration date of the permit and shall be accompanied by the nonrefundable fee referenced in this article. When made less than forty five (45) days before the expiration date, the expiration of the permit will not be stayed. Applications for renewal shall be acted on similar to applications for permits except that the Police Chief shall renew annual permits for additional one year periods if the circumstances and information provided with the initial application have not materially changed. Regulatory fees may be pro-rated based on the term of the regulatory permit. (Ord. 1853, 5-7-2019)
