§ 12.5-105. Delinquent license fees.  


Latest version.
  • For nonpayment of all or any part of the correct license fee, the license inspector shall levy and collect a late penalty of ten (10) percent of the unpaid fee for each month or portion thereof after the due date until paid; provided however, that the late penalty to be collected for any one year's delinquent fee shall not exceed thirty (30) percent of the fee due for that year. Any business license holder whose license is not renewed on or before September 30 shall pay, in addition to any other penalty that may have accrued, a reinstatement fee of one hundred dollars ($100.00) prior to the activation of any expired business license. If any license fee shall remain unpaid for sixty (60) days after its due date, the county shall issue an execution which shall constitute a lien upon the property of the licensee for the tax, penalties and costs of collection, and shall proceed to collect in the same manner as prescribed by law for the collection of other taxes.
