§ 119-5. Issuance of license; restrictions.

Upon filing of the application, bond and certificate as provided in the preceding section, the Town Clerk shall, upon his approval of such application, issue to the applicant a license as provided in § 119-3 signed by said Clerk. Except as hereinafter provided, no license shall be refused except for a specific reason and for the protection of the public safety, health, morals or general welfare. A license shall not be assignable. Any holder of such license who permits it to be used by any other person and any person who used such license granted to any other person shall each be guilty of a violation of this chapter. Whenever a license shall be lost or destroyed on the part of the holder of his agent or employee, a duplicate in lieu thereof, under the original application and bond, may be issued by the Town Clerk upon filing with him by the licensee of an affidavit setting forth the circumstances of the loss and what, if any, search has been made for its recovery. All licenses shall be issued from a properly bound book with proper reference stubs kept for that purpose, numbered in the order which they are issued, and shall state clearly the kind of vehicle to be used, the kinds of goods, wares and merchandise to be sold or service to be rendered, the number of his license, the date of issuance and expiration of the license fee paid and the name and address of the licensee. Such license shall automatically expire on January 1 following the date of issuance of such license, but such license may specifically state and provide for an earlier expiration date. Such license shall include the right to use only one vehicle in carrying on the business for which the person is licensed. No license shall be granted to a person under 18 years of age. No applicant to whom a license has been refused or who has had a license which has been revoked shall make further application until a period of at least six months shall have elapsed since the last previous rejection or revocation, unless he can show that the reason for such rejection no longer exists. Every licensee, while exercising his license, shall carry the license with him and shall exhibit the same upon demand.
