As a condition for issuance or renewal of any license or permit issued
by or requiring the approval of the Township, its agents or employees, the
applicant shall certify that, if he is the owner thereof, he has paid any
delinquent property taxes or assessments on the property wherein the business
or activity for which the license or permit is sought or wherein the business
or activity is to be conducted.
When any licensee who is an owner of the licensed property or upon which
the licensed business or activity is conducted has failed to pay the taxes
due on that property for at least three consecutive quarters, the issuing
authority for the license or permit shall give notice of revocation of that
license or permit at least 10 days prior to the effective date of said revocation.
Upon payment of the delinquent taxes or assessment prior to the effective
date, the notice to revoke the license or permit shall be dismissed. Subsequent
to revocation, the former licensee must apply for renewal for the license
or permit.
The licensee or holder of a permit in the Township, upon receipt of
a notice of revocation of that license or permit, may appeal said proposed
revocation to the Township Manager who shall, within 20 days of said notice,
provide a hearing for said licensee or holder of a permit. No revocation shall
occur during the period prior to the hearing by the Township Manager. Subsequent
to hearing of the appeal, the Manager shall render a final decision in regard
to revocation of the license or permit.
The provisions of this article shall not apply to or include any alcoholic
beverage license or permit issued pursuant to the Alcoholic Beverage Control
Act, N.J.S.A. 33:1-1 et seq.
