Division 4 — PERMITS

Every person desiring to engage in or conduct business as a seller within the City shall file with the clerk an application for a permit for each place of business from which taxable sales will be made. Every application for a permit shall be made upon a form prescribed by the Clerk and shall set forth the name under which

the applicant transacts or intends to transact business, the location of his place or places of business and such other information as the Clerk may require. The application shall be signed by the owner, if a natural person; in the case of a corporation, by an executive officer or some person specifically authorized by the corporation to sign the application, to which shall be attached the written evidence of his authority.

At the time of making an application for a permit, and at the time a change of location is endorsed upon a permit, the applicant for a permit or for an endorsement for a change of location on a permit shall pay to the Treasurer a fee of $1.00.

After compliance with Section 2634.1 hereinabove by the applicant, the Clerk shall grant and issue to each applicant a separate permit for each place of business from which taxable sales will be made. A permit is not assignable and is valid only for the person to whom it is issued and for the transaction of business at the place designated therein; provided, however, a change of location may be endorsed upon the permit by the Clerk. The permit shall at all times be conspicuously displayed at the place for which issued.

Whenever any person fails to comply with any of the provisions of this Part or any rules and regulations adopted pursuant hereto, the Council, upon hearing after giving the person ten (10) days' notice in writing specifying the time and place of hearing and requiring him to show cause why his permit, or permits, should not be revoked, may revoke or suspend any one or more of the permits held by the person. The notice may be served personally or by mail in the manner prescribed for the service of notice of deficiency determination under the "Sales and Use Tax Law." The Clerk shall not issue a new permit after revocation of a permit unless the Council is satisfied that the holder of such permit will comply with the provisions of this Part and the rules and regulations adopted pursuant hereto and directs that said Clerk issue such permit.

A seller whose permit has been previously suspended or revoked shall pay the Treasurer a fee of $5.00 for the renewal or issuance of a permit.
