Latest version.
  • (a)

    All holders of license under this article must within three months after the issuance of such license open for business unless the time is extended. Failure to open the licensed establishment within the three months period or extended period shall serve as an automatic forfeiture and the cancellation of the license, and no refund of license fees shall be made.

    (b)

    Any holder of a license under this article who shall begin the operation of the business as authorized in the license, but who shall for a period of three consecutive months thereafter cease to operate the business as authorized in the license, shall upon completion of this three months' period automatically forfeit his license, which license shall, by virtue of such failure to operate, be canceled without the necessity of any further action of the county.
