PUBLISH, PUBLISHING, ADVERTISEMENT OR ADVERTISING
Any and all means of conveying to the public notice of a sale or notice of intention to conduct a sale, either by word of mouth, by newspaper advertising, by magazine advertising, by handbills, by written notice, by printed notice or by any other means, including oral, written and printed.
The sale or an offer to sell to the public of goods, wares and merchandise of any and all kinds and descriptions, on hand and in stock, in connection with a declared purpose as set forth by advertisement on the part of the seller that such sale is anticipatory to the termination, closing, liquidation, windup, discontinuance, conclusion or abandonment of the business in connection with such sale.
A sale advertised to be a "retirement sale," "removal sale" or "loss of lease sale," and any and all sales advertised in such manner as to reasonably convey to the public that, upon the disposal of the stock of goods on hand, the business will cease and be discontinued.
The Chief of Police is hereby authorized and empowered to supervise and regulate sales or special sales as defined in § 204-1, and the application for a license therefor shall be made to the Village Clerk upon forms to be supplied said applicant for that purpose and shall contain a statement subscribed to under oath or affirmation by the person, member of the firm or officer of the corporation applying for such license, which statement shall contain:
An itemized list of the goods, wares and merchandise to be offered for sale, the place where such stock was purchased or acquired, and, if not purchased, the manner of such acquisition.
Any additional information the Village Clerk may require.
Upon receipt of such application and payment of the fee hereafter prescribed, the Chief of Police shall cause the application to be examined and investigated. If, after investigation, the Village Clerk is satisfied as to the truth of the statement contained in such application as to the form and content of the advertisement to be used in connection with such sale, he may then issue a license permitting the publication and conduct of such sale. Such license shall be good for a period not exceeding 30 days, except that upon satisfactory proof by the licensee that the stock itemized in the original application has not been disposed of, the Village Clerk may renew such license for an additional thirty-day period upon the payment of the prescribed renewal fee.
After a hearing on not less than three days' notice, the Board of Trustees may suspend or revoke a license.
Upon the filing of an original application or a renewal application for a license to advertise and conduct a sale or special sale as hereinabove defined, the applicant shall pay to the Village Clerk such fee as shall be established from time to time by resolution of the Board of Trustees.
Upon commencement of any sale as hereinbefore defined, the license issued shall be prominently displayed near the entrance to the premises. A duplicate original of the application and the stock list pursuant to which such license was issued shall at all times be available to the Chief of Police or his representative, and the licensee shall permit an inspection of all merchandise in the premises. Suitable books and records shall be kept by the licensee and shall at all times be available for inspection. In the course of business each day, the stock list attached to the application shall be revised, and the stock disposed of during such day shall be removed therefrom and no goods added to said list.
