A. The license fees set out in this chapter will not be prorated, and such licenses expire on the thirty-first day of December of each year, except that in the event that the original application is made subsequent to June 30th, then one-half of the annual fee may be accepted for the remainder of said year. Licenses issued under this chapter are not assignable.

B. Application for renewal of licenses issued hereunder shall be made to the clerk no later than 30 days prior to the expiration of adult entertainment establishment licenses, and no later than 14 days prior to the expiration of adult entertainment establishment manager licenses. The renewal license shall be issued in the same manner and on payment of the same fees as for an original application under this chapter. There shall be assessed and collected by the clerk an additional charge, computed as a percentage of the license fee, on applications not submitted on or before said date as follows:

C. The clerk shall renew a license upon application unless the clerk is aware of facts that would disqualify the applicant from being issued the license for which they seek renewal; and further provided, that the application complies with all provisions of this chapter as now enacted or as the same may hereafter be amended. (Ord. 4887 § 10, 1996.)
