No person shall engage in or carry on the business
of storing or selling Christmas trees and related articles without
a license obtained from the Town Clerk of the town, after approval
by the Fire Prevention Bureau.
Every applicant for a license for the storage
or sale of Christmas trees and related articles shall submit his application
in writing to the Town Clerk. The application shall state and contain
a provision that, in consideration of the granting of the license,
the applicant therefor shall save and hold harmless the town and its
officials and employees from all damages caused by the negligence
of the applicant. In addition, the applicant shall furnish a copy
of a policy of liability insurance with minimum coverage for personal
injury of $100,000 per person and $300,000.
[Amended 6-15-1994 by Ord. No. 44/94]
Every applicant shall pay a license fee of $75
per incident.
No such license shall be construed to relieve
any licensee therefor of the duty to properly store and maintain said
trees in order not to endanger property or interfere with the operation
of the Police or Fire Departments or the egress of occupants of the
premises in case of fire or to comply with any applicable provisions
of this Code.
All licenses for the storage or sale of Christmas
trees shall be displayed at all times on the premises where such storage
or sale is taking place.
