Analysis

This ordinance:

 

1.  Clarifies that there is only one type of license required for a business that leases, rents, places or installs amusement machines, jukeboxes or both.

 

2.  Changes the licensing period for an amusement machine or jukebox distributor license from one year to 2 years.

 

3.  Eliminates the requirement that, on or before December 31 of each calendar year, each amusement machine or jukebox distributor file with the city clerk an updated disclosure of the number of machines or jukeboxes that are currently placed in the city by the distributor, as well as the location of each machine or jukebox. This disclosure will now be required only at the time of license renewal.
