§ 22-167. License application.

(a)

Applications for a license under the provisions of this chapter shall be on forms furnished by the city clerk which shall set forth such information as the licensing authority requires to enable the authority to determine whether a license should be granted. Each individual applicant, partner of a partnership, member of a limited liability company or association, or officer, director, and holder of ten percent or more of the interest of the corporation, company or association, and all managers, shall be named in each application form, and each of them shall be photographed and fingerprinted by the city police department. Each applicant shall also furnish evidence that the proposed establishment meets the requirements of the city zoning ordinance, proof of the applicant's right to possession of the premises, complete plans and specifications for the premises, a financial questionnaire, and background investigation report, and consent to release financial information, and any other information necessary to complete the investigation of the applicant. Each corporate and limited liability company applicant shall furnish evidence that it is in good standing under the statutes of the state, or in the case of a foreign corporation, evidence that it is currently authorized to do business in the state.

(b)

The city clerk shall not accept any application that is not complete in every detail. If an omission or error is discovered by the city clerk, the application shall be rejected and returned to the applicant for completion or correction without further action by the city clerk. All fees shall be returned with the application. For purposes of this article, the date the city clerk accepts an application which is complete in every detail shall be the filing date.

(c)

Upon receipt of a complete application for a license to operate a massage parlor and upon a completed background investigation by the police department, the licensing authority shall set, at its next regular meeting, the boundaries of the neighborhood to be considered pursuant to section 22-170 of this chapter in determining whether or not to grant said license.
