[HISTORY: Adopted by the Mayor and Council of the Borough

of adoption of Code; see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Article I. Other
amendments noted where applicable.]
Anyone dealing in the purchase and sale of junk, old rope, old
iron, brass, copper, tin or lead, rags, cloth or empty bottles shall
be deemed to be a junk dealer and the place of business a junk shop,
and every such junk dealer shall give a bond to the Town Council of
the Town of Secaucus with sufficient surety, approved by the Town
Council of the Town of Secaucus in the penal sum of $250, conditioned
for the due observance of all town ordinances.
Every junk dealer shall keep a book in which shall legibly be
written at the time of every purchase a description of every article
so purchased, the name and residence of the person from whom such
purchase was made and the day and hour of such purchase; and such
book shall at all reasonable times be open to the inspection of the
Mayor, any member of the Town Council, any marshal or police officer
or Judge of the Town of Secaucus or any person duly authorized in
writing for such purpose by any of said authorities and who shall
exhibit such written authority to such dealer.
No junk dealer shall carry on business at any other place than
the one designated in the license therefor nor shall continue to carry
on business after such license is suspended or revoked or expired.
No junk dealer shall purchase any goods, article or thing whatsoever
from any minor apprentice or servant, knowing or having reason to
believe the seller to be such, or from any person or persons whatsoever
between the setting of the sun and the hour of 7:00 a.m.
No person shall engage in or carry on the business of junk dealer
without a license therefor.
As used in this chapter, the following term shall have the meaning
indicated:
Any human being or lawful association of such.
All licenses granted for the purposes mentioned in this chapter
shall expire on the first Monday in April next after the same shall
be granted, and shall respectively state the purpose for which the
same shall be granted, the number of the license and the name of the
person licensed. All such licenses shall be renewed annually by the
Town Council, subject in all things to the same conditions, provisions
and charges as in and for the original license.
Each person licensed to engage in or carry on the business of
junk dealer shall pay annually the sum of $25 for such license for
the use of the Town of Secaucus, on the issuance thereof.
Any person violating or failing to comply with any of the provisions
of this chapter shall, upon conviction thereof, be punishable by a
fine of not more than $500 or by imprisonment for a term not to exceed
90 days, or by both such fine and imprisonment in the discretion of
the Judge. The continuation of such violation for each successive
day shall constitute a separate offense, and the person or persons
allowing or permitting the continuation of the violation may be punished
as provided above for each separate offense.
