[Ord. 4725, passed 9-14-1942]
No person shall provide hives for or keep any bees within the
City without first obtaining a permit from the Director of Code Enforcement.
The Director shall have full discretion, when any one makes application
for such a permit, to examine the reasons of the applicant and the
condition of the place where the hives for bees are to be provided
or the bees are to be kept and the condition of the surrounding neighborhood.
If the Director determines that there are reasonable grounds for the
granting of such a permit and that the health and general welfare
and safety of the neighborhood in which the bees are to be kept will
not be impaired thereby, he may grant such a permit which is revocable
upon such restrictive terms and conditions as he determines are necessary
or expedient under the circumstances.
[Ord. 4725, passed 9-14-1942]
The Director of Code Enforcement shall immediately revoke any
permit to keep bees, the terms of which have been violated, or if,
in his judgment at any time, the permit ought to be revoked under
the circumstances.
Whoever violates any provision of this article shall be punished as provided in Section
101.99 of the Administrative Code.
