   1709.02 LICENSE REQUIRED.
   Prior to conducting a food establishment operation in the Warren City Health District, every operator, person or governmental agency shall renew the license on or before March 1 each year. However, a seasonal food establishment operation, as determined by the Warren City Board of Health, may obtain or renew its license at any time before it begins conduct of its food establishment operation during the calendar year. If a license fee is not paid as prescribed by Section 1709.03, on or before the date it is due, a penalty of twenty-five percent (25%) of any such fee shall be imposed and paid. Except as provided in this section, no food establishment operation shall be maintained and conducted in the Warren City Health District without such a license. An operator, person or governmental agency that has received a license, upon the sale or disposition of the food establishment operation or the removal to a new location may, upon obtaining consent of the Warren City Board of Health, have the license transferred, but no license shall be transferred without such consent, not more than once.
