Whenever in any ordinance or local law it is provided that a license be obtained before engaging upon any act or in any specified business, trade or occupation or before providing services for payment or hire for the convenience, comfort or entertainment of others or for any other designated purpose, it shall be a violation hereof for any person to engage upon or undertake any activity or enterprise thus specified until a license has been issued to him in compliance with the provisions of this chapter and of any other applicable ordinance or local law.
Except as otherwise specifically provided, every applicant for a license shall file with the Village Clerk a statement signed and sworn to by the applicant in person if an individual, by all partners if a partnership and by the president or duly authorized officer if a corporation, showing:
If his age is 21 years or less and, if less, his precise age.
Whether or not the applicant or, in the case of a corporation, whether any officer or director thereof has been convicted of a crime or violation of any ordinance or local law of the Village and, if so, the nature of such offense and the penalty assessed therefor.
References or letters of recommendation by at least three reputable business people or property owners of the Village such as will establish to the satisfaction of the Mayor the good character and business responsibility of the applicant or such other proof of the good character and business responsibility of the applicant as may be required by the Mayor. The applicant shall furnish a list of three such references. The Mayor shall then solicit and review letters from each of said persons. No license will be issued until all three references have been received by the Mayor.

Any other data necessary to meet the requirements of any ordinance or local law or as required by the Mayor.
Whenever by the terms of any ordinance or local law a bond is required to protect the Village or any other person against loss because of the fault or default of a licensee, no license shall be issued until a bond in the full amount specified and in form approved by the Village Attorney has been filed with the Village Clerk and the fact of its filing, the amount of its coverage and the date of its expiration has been noted on the license.
All licenses issued on an annual basis shall expire on the 31st day of December of each year. The precise date of expiration shall be clearly marked upon each temporary license.
All licenses shall be issued by the Mayor to such persons as he shall deem fit and proper upon an evaluation of their qualifications and upon compliance of the applicant with the provisions of this or any other applicable ordinance or local law. However, licenses for circuses, theaters or other exhibitions or performances, the keeping of billiard or pool rooms, bowling alleys, shooting galleries and other similar places of amusements for money or hire or the giving of exhibitions, performances or entertainment at any place within the Village or the use of mechanically operated amusement devices shall be refused when, in the judgment of the Mayor, they shall be likely to disturb the peace and order of the Village or be immoral or improper.
Any applicant who has been refused a license by the Mayor may apply for its issuance to the Board of Trustees at a meeting thereof, and the same may be granted or refused by the Board.
Every license issued shall be signed by the Mayor and countersigned by the Village Clerk, who shall keep a record thereof and the amount of fee to be paid therefor.

Any violation of a term of this chapter or any other ordinance or local law under whose provisions the license was issued.

Carrying out the licensed business, enterprise or activity in such manner that the same disturbs the peace and quiet of the neighborhood.
Unless specifically provided otherwise, any license duly issued may be renewed upon application by the licensee, accompanied by the appropriate fee and a continuance or renewal of bonds as provided in § 255-3 hereof.
