It shall be unlawful for any person to own or
operate a base without having first obtained and having then in force
a base owner's license therefor, as hereinafter provided.
Every base owner's license issued hereunder
shall be issued as of the first day of August or subsequent date of
issue and shall expire on the 31st day of July next succeeding unless
sooner revoked by the Town Board.
A.
Every person applying for a base owner's license shall file with the Town Clerk a written application in accordance with the requirement of § 52-7 for an owner's license and containing all information as required by that section other than such information as shall be deemed unnecessary by the Town Clerk. The information shall include the location of the proposed base.
B.
The applicant for a base owner's license shall also
provide to the Town Clerk the name and address of each owner of a
private livery car with which the base is or proposes to become affiliated.
A base may not be affiliated with or dispatch a private livery car
to operate within the Town unless such private livery car is licensed
pursuant to this chapter.
The provisions of Article IV with respect to the renewal and transfer of an owner's license shall apply to a base owner's license.
The holder of a base owner's license shall apply to the Town Clerk if it wishes to become affiliated with an additional private livery car(s) and shall provide all information as required by § 52-17.3. If an affiliation with a private livery car terminates, the base owner shall provide notice to the Town Clerk of such termination within 30 days.
Upon receipt of a license pursuant to this article,
no base owner shall dispatch a private livery car to operate unless
the private livery car is listed with the Town Clerk as affiliated
with the base and unless the private livery car and the driver of
it are properly licensed under this chapter.
