§ 30-1485. Term and renewal of permits.

(a)

In order to commence vending on private property, all vendors must have an initial permit issued and must meet all the qualifications set forth herein before reapplying for a permit. The length of time that a vendor on private property may remain on such property, excluding those holding a food permit as set out in section 30-1482(a), but including those holding a merchandise, service or combination permit as set out in section 30-1482(b)—(d), shall be two years, except as provided in subsection (b) of this section. A vendor permit for a private property vending location will be issued for a one-year period. When the one-year permit expires, a vendor may apply for a renewal permit which allows the vendor to vend for another one-year period. Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, after a vendor has been issued a renewal permit to vend on the same parcel of land for an additional year, the vendor, excluding those holding a food permit as set out in section 30-1482(a), but including those holding a merchandise, service or combination permit as set out in section 30-1482(b)—(d), may not renew a vending permit for such location for two years, except as provided in subsection (b) of this section. At the expiration of the two-year vending term, except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, the property owner shall not allow another vendor to vend on said property for a period of 90 days.

(b)

If, after two years at one location, a vendor wishes to vend on that same parcel of land for another period up to two years, the vendor must secure a new initial permit as provided in sections 30-1483 and 30-1484. An initial permit issued in accordance with this subsection shall be otherwise subject to the provisions of this section, (30-1485), in the same manner as other initial permits.

(c)

No applicant shall be issued more than one permit; provided that an applicant for a flea market vending permit may be issued a flea market vending permit in addition to any other permit.

(d)

After the initial permit for the first year expires, vendors may present to the police department an application for a renewal permit. Upon a review and approval of the renewal application by the appropriate agencies, satisfaction of all other license and permit requirements, and upon payment of the appropriate fee as indicated in section 30-1486, the police department license and permits unit shall furnish the applicant with a renewal permit.

(e)

Each applicant for a renewal application shall submit an application which shall at a minimum consist of the following data:

(1)

Applicant's name and current address.

(2)

Applicant's previous addresses within the last five years.

(3)

Social security number.
