[Added 1-23-1997 by Ord. No. 5759]
From and after the effective date of this article,
it shall be unlawful for any persons granted a drinking establishment
license by the State of Kansas to sell or serve any alcoholic liquor
authorized by such license within the City without first obtaining
a local license form the City Clerk.
There is hereby levied an annual license tax
on each drinking establishment located in the City which has a drinking
establishment license granted by the State of Kansas, which tax must
be paid before business is begun under a state license and within
five days after renewal of a state license. Drinking establishments
doing business on the effective date of this article must pay the
tax within five days after such effective date. The City annual license
tax is $250.
To apply for a new or renewal City license submit
payment of the license tax and a copy of the state license. The City
Clerk must issue a City license for the period covered by the state
license if there are no conflicts with any zoning or alcoholic beverage
ordinances of the City.
The City license extends for the time period
covered by the state license. No license tax, nor any part of the
license tax, is refundable for any reason.
Every licensee must display the City license
in a conspicuous place on the licensed premises adjacent to the state
license.
All City licensees must comply with all state
regulations applicable to a state licensee. Failure to do so is a
misdemeanor for which the minimum penalty is the same as the minimum
penalty for violation of such state regulations and the maximum penalty
is the same as the maximum penalty for the violation of such state
regulations.
