There is hereby imposed on each owner of a nonexempt, occupied
unit in the City of Prescott a monthly municipal permit fee as determined
in accordance with § 66.0435(3), Wis. Stats., which is hereby
adopted by reference and made part of this article as if fully set
forth herein. It shall be the full and complete responsibility of
the licensee to collect the proper amount from each unit owner. Licensees
shall pay to the City Treasurer such monthly municipal permit fees
on or before the 10th day of the month following the month for which
such fees are due in accordance with the terms of this article and
such regulations as the City Treasurer may reasonably promulgate.
Licensees of communities and owners of land on which are parked
any occupied, nonexempt units shall furnish information to the City
Treasurer and Assessor on such units added to their community or land
within five days after arrival of such unit on forms furnished by
the City Treasurer in accordance with § 66.0435(3)(c) and
(e), Wis. Stats. Failure to comply with this section shall be subject
to a forfeiture of not more than $25. Each failure to report is a
separate offense.
Occupants or owners of nonexempt units parked outside of a community shall remit such fees directly to the City Treasurer as provided in §
377-2. It shall be the full and complete responsibility of the licensee of a community to collect such fees from each occupied, nonexempt unit therein and to remit such fees to the City Treasurer as provided in §
377-2.
Owners of nonexempt, occupied units, upon receipt of notice
from the City Treasurer of their liability for the monthly municipal
permit fee, shall remit to the City Treasurer a cash deposit as prescribed
by the City's fee schedule to guarantee payment of such fees when
due to the City. It shall be the full and complete responsibility
of the licensee of the community to collect such cash deposits from
each occupied, nonexempt unit therein and to remit such deposits to
the City Treasurer. Upon receipt of a notice from the owner or licensee
that the nonexempt, occupied unit has been or is about to be removed
from the City, the City Treasurer shall apply said cash deposit to
reduce any monthly municipal permit fees for which said owner is liable
and refund the balance, if any, to said owner.
