Analysis
This ordinance reinstates code provisions that sunset on May 22, 2004 to require that each vehicle that is for sale on public property display a certificate issued by the department of public works. In order to receive this certificate, an applicant must submit the vehicle for inspection by the department and be able to demonstrate the following:
1. That the vehicle is his or her property or that he or she has the permission of the vehicle's owner to sell the vehicle on the owner's behalf.
2. That the vehicle's vehicle identification number has not been altered in such a way as to render it illegible.
The fee for each certificate shall be $40 and shall be valid for a period of 6 months from the date of issuance. Vehicles that are for sale on public property without this certificate are subject to being ticketed and towed.
The provisions of this ordinance will be effective for one-year in the area of the city bounded by West Pierce Street on the north, South 20th Street on the east, West Cleveland Avenue on the south and South 38th Street on the west.
