[Amended 4-14-1988 by Ord. No. 2-1988]
A. 
Upon application in such form as Council may from time to time approve, and upon payment to the Chief of Police of the fee prescribed by this section, the Chief of Police shall issue and renew licenses for pedalcycles, but before licensing a pedalcycle or renewing a previously issued license, the Chief of Police shall inspect the pedalcycle and shall refuse to license or renew a license for a pedalcycle that he deems to be in unsafe condition. Each license shall be evidenced by a registration card and a numbered license place. A license plate shall be issued upon each original application, and it shall continue to be valid as long as the licensee holds the original registration card or a currently effective renewal card. Each renewal card shall have noted on it the number of the license plate to which it is related.
(1) 
The license plate shall be attached to the pedalcycle as provided in Subsection C of this section. The registration card shall be shown on request of any police officer. If the operator does not have the registration card with him when requested to show it, he shall exhibit it to the police officer within 48 hours after the request.
(2) 
The Chief of Police shall keep an accurate record of the name and address of each person to whom a license is issued and of each renewal of a license. He shall also keep a record of identification of each pedalcycle for which a license is in effect.
(3) 
All licenses and renewals shall expire on June 30 of each year. Renewal applications will be received by the Chief of Police at any time after June 1 of the year for which the license is to be renewed.
(4) 
The fee for each original and renewal license shall be $2, which shall be for the use of the Borough.
B. 
The licenses issued under this section shall not be transferable from one person to another, and it shall be the duty of every person who sells or transfers ownership of any pedalcycle within the Borough to report that fact to the Chief of Police. If that pedalcycle had been licensed and registered, that person, at the same time, shall return to the Chef of Police the registration card and license tag. That person shall also furnish the Chief of Police with the name and address of the person to whom the pedalcycle was sold or transferred. That report and return of the registration card and license tag shall be made by the person selling or transferring within three days of the date of the sale or transfer. It shall be the duty of any person who purchases or otherwise acquires a pedalcycle required under this article to be licensed and registered immediately to apply for a registration card and license tags, which shall be valid until the first day of April next following issuance.
C. 
It shall be the duty of every person who dismantles, reduces to junk or takes out of operation any pedalcycle, whether that pedalcycle is or is not registered, immediately to report the fact to the Chief of Police and to turn in the registration card and license tag if the pedalcycle was registered.
D. 
The license shall be attached to the rear of the pedalcycle, at least 15 inches from the ground, and in such manner as to be clearly visible from any position five feet to the rear of the pedalcycle.
E. 
License holders shall promptly replace license plates which have been lost or disfigured to such an extent as to make the same illegible. Replacement license plates shall be obtained from the Chief of Police in the same manner as provided in this section for original plates, and an additional fee of $1 shall be paid for the replacement.
F. 
No license replacement shall be granted to any person whose license has been suspended for violation of any provision of this article during the time that suspension is in effect. No person whose license has been suspended shall operate any pedalcycle within the limits of the Borough during the period of suspension.
G. 
The Chief of Police shall properly account for, and pay over to the Borough Treasurer monthly, all fees received by him for the licenses or replacements as provided in this section.
Any person who shall violate any provision of § 470-62 of this article shall, upon conviction, be sentenced to pay a fine of $10 and costs; any person who shall violate any provision of § 470-63, 470-64 or 470-65 of this article shall, upon conviction, be sentenced to pay a fine of $25 and costs.
