Latest version.
  • Licenses shall be issued by the city upon submission of a proper application and upon payment of the appropriate license fee. However, no such license shall issue when the licensee, applicant or an employee, within the five years preceding the date of application, has been convicted of or pleaded guilty or nolo contendere to a federal or state felony, or any crime involving elements of fraud or theft or has been convicted of a violation of the solicitation ordinance, or to any person whose certificate of registration has been previously revoked or when in the opinion of the city clerk, based on the licensee's, applicant's or employee's past and present activity and conduct, denial of the license is necessary to protect the public health, safety and general welfare. Further, no license shall issue pursuant to this section authorizing such activity on any premises for which there exists a business license for another business not owned by the proposed licensee.
