a. Upon receipt of a completed application, as hereinabove prescribed, together with the stated fee, the Clerk-Treasurer shall refer the same to the Board of Metropolitan Police Commissioners of the Town who shall cause the matters stated in the application, as well as the applicants, to be investigated by the Police Department of the Town. At the conclusion of such investigation, the Board of Metropolitan Police Commissioners shall make a report to Town Council of the Town, which shall be confidential in nature and which, together with the application, shall be considered by the Board in determining whether or not to grant the application and issue the license applied for.
b. If the Town Council determines the application to be in order, and upon receipt of a favorable report from the Police Commission, then the Town Council of the Town shall authorize the Clerk-Treasurer to issue the license applied for. If, on the other hand, the application is defective, or the report of the Police Commission is adverse or tends to indicate that the information in the application is not viable, or is defective then, and in that event, the Town Council of the Town shall instruct the Clerk-Treasurer not to issue the license and to notify the applicant accordingly of the Council's action.
