  • All licenses provided for in this title may be issued for any period not exceeding one year and not less than the period for which a license fee is fixed except that if an annual license costs more than $10.00 per year, and the applicant shows to the satisfaction of the tax collector that because the business or occupation is of seasonal nature, or because of statutory or ordinance regulations or restrictions, or because of termination or loss of lease, or because of acquisition by the public of the premises on which the occupation or business is situated, or because of similar reasons, such business or occupation cannot be carried on for the entire year, a license may be issued for such lesser period and the license fee prorated accordingly, but the fee charged shall not be less than one-half the annual fee.
