[Adopted 8-20-1930]
No person or persons, corporation or corporations shall set
up or operate any miniature golf course, miniature driving and putting
course, practice court or other device for profit or where a fee is
charged within the limits of the Borough of Ho-Ho-Kus without first
taking out a license therefor before opening to the public or operating
any such miniature golf course, driving and putting course, practice
court or any other such amusement device.
A.
All licenses granted under the provisions of this article shall be
issued by the Borough Clerk on application in writing signed by the
person or persons, corporation or corporations applying for such license,
describing the location where such course, court or other device is
to be operated, accompanied by the license fee hereinafter specified.
B.
All licenses shall expire on the 31st day of December next ensuing
the date of issuing the same.
The Council of the Borough of Ho-Ho-Kus shall have power to
revoke or suspend any such license, in its discretion, in case gambling
or disorderly conduct is permitted or any of the provisions of this
article violated or, if in the judgment of the Borough Council, the
operation of such course shall constitute a nuisance.
All places licensed under the provisions of this article shall
close every night at 12:00 midnight.
All licenses granted under the provisions of this article shall be subject to the provisions of Chapter 85, Zoning, if any, affecting such use of the premises for which the license is applied and shall obtain a permit for occupancy before such court or course is operated.
Every application for a license shall be accompanied by a plan
showing sufficient provisions for parking to accommodate the patrons
of such course or court. The Council reserves the right to reject
any application for license where sufficient parking facilities are
not provided or where in the judgment of the Council such course or
court is not in a suitable location.
Any person or persons, corporation or corporations violating
any of the provisions of this article shall be subject to a penalty
by imprisonment in the county jail for five days or a fine of $200,
or both, for each offense. The Magistrate before whom conviction is
had shall fix the amount of said penalty not in excess of the maximum
herein provided.
This article shall take effect immediately.
