Upon receipt of an application upon the forms provided by the revenue division and payment of a nonrefundable application fee in the amount of one hundred dollars ($100.00), the finance director shall forward the application to the chief of police. The chief shall investigate the character of all applicants. The applicant shall furnish such information to the chief as may be reasonably required to determine the moral character and fitness of the applicant and shall include a statement by the applicant showing the applicant's past residences for a period of five (5) years next preceding the application. If the chief is satisfied that the applicant is of good moral character, the chief shall certify such finding to the finance director, who shall then, upon payment by the applicant of the occupational license tax imposed in article I of chapter 19, issue an occupational license to the applicant to engage in the business of fortunetelling. No license shall be granted, however, to any person who has been convicted of any felony.
