5.04.280   Transfer of permit.
   A.   Upon sale, transfer or relocation of an adult-related establishment, the permit therefor shall be void unless permission to transfer is first obtained pursuant to this section. Provided, however, that upon the death or incapacity of the permittee, the establishment may continue in business for a reasonable period of time to allow for an orderly transfer of the permit pursuant to this section.
   No adult-related establishment permit shall be transferable as to location or person, except with the written consent of the city manager. An application for such a transfer shall be in writing and contain the same information as required herein for initial application for such a permit. Prior to submitting the application to the chief of police, the applicant shall pay a nonrefundable fee, established by resolution of the city council, to the department of finance. The department of finance shall issue a receipt to the applicant showing that such permit application fee has been paid. The applicant shall provide the chief of police with the receipt or a copy thereof at the time of applying for a transfer under this section.
   B.   Escort permits are not transferable. (Ord. 2021-0016 § 20; Ord. 2001-040 § 15; prior code § 28.06.088)
