[HISTORY: Adopted by the Common Council of the City of Monona
as Title 7, Ch. 11, of the 1994 Code. Amendments noted where applicable.]
Any person desiring to sell Christmas trees within the City
shall first pay to the City Treasurer the required license fee for
each calendar year during which such sales are or will be made. The
Treasurer's receipt constitutes the license.
In addition to the license fee as set by the Common Council
in the City's Fee Schedule, the licensee shall deposit with the City
Treasurer, at the same time the above license fee is paid, an amount
as set by the Common Council in the City's Fee Schedule for each location
in the City where such sales will be conducted by or in behalf of
the licensee or at which location trees will be kept for sale purposes.
Such deposit will be refunded on the licensee's discontinuance
of such sales and on the written approval of the City Building Inspector.
Such deposit is required to insure the proper cleaning up of the location
after sales have been discontinued and in order to prevent unsightliness
and fire hazards. Upon termination of sales, the licensee must promptly
clean up the sales location. Otherwise, the City will cause the necessary
cleanup work to be done by the City and will deduct the reasonable
cost thereof from the deposit. If the cost exceeds the deposit, the
excess will be charged to the licensee.
