No person shall engage in a transient retail business in the Village without first obtaining a license therefor.
One conducted in a store, hotel, house, building or structure for the sale of retail goods, wares or merchandise, excepting food products, and which is intended to be conducted for a temporary period of time and not permanently. If the place in which a business is conducted is rented or leased for a period of six months or less, such fact shall be presumptive evidence that the business carried on therein is transient retail business.
Pursuant to the provisions of the General Municipal Law as amended, a tax shall be levied upon all persons or corporations now conducting or who may hereafter conduct a transient retail business in the Village of Patchogue. Such tax shall be based upon the gross amount of sales and shall be at the same rate as other property is taxed for the year in the Village of Patchogue. If at the time such tax becomes due and payable the tax rate for the current year of the Village has not been fixed, the same shall be estimated by the Assessor thereof.
Before a license is issued, the applicant therefor shall file with the Village Clerk a cash deposit or bond, in an amount not less than $100 and not more than $500, the amount to be fixed by the Mayor in proportion to the estimated amount of business to be done under such license, conditioned that such person or corporation will make a full and complete report of the gross amount of sales made in such transient retail business in the Village of Patchogue, and shall file such reports as may be required with the Village Clerk, and will faithfully comply with the General Municipal Law in relation to taxation of transient merchants and with the provisions of this article and will pay the amount of the tax therein levied, said bond to be approved by the Village Attorney as to form and manner of execution and by the Mayor as to its sufficiency.
In addition to the requirements of § 255-2 of Chapter 255 of this Code, the application will state:
The character of the property proposed to be sold.
The estimated amount of gross sales which will be made.
The person receiving such license shall, before the beginning of said business, file with the Village Clerk a verified report of the stock on hand, the aggregate value thereof, with which it is intended to conduct said business; shall thereafter as further stock is received, within two days after the receipt thereof, file a verified report with the Village Clerk of such added stock and of the aggregate value thereof, and shall on Monday of each week file a verified report of the stock sold during the preceding week and the amount for which the same was sold, and at the completion of said transient retail business shall file a verified report setting forth the total amount of stock and the total amount for which it was sold.
