The City of Hartsville | Agenda Date:
7/10/2018 | To: City Council | From: City Manager |
Ordinance Number: 4342 Resolution Number: - REGULAR MEETING | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| ORDINANCE/RESOLUTION CAPTION: | Amends and restates Chapter 14 Business License, Article II Business License Program. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | |
| BACKGROUND SUMMARY: | | Amendment includes: Licenses are due yearly May 1 to April 30; Each business requires a separate license; Provides a 30 day window for an annexed business to obtain a license; States that gross receipts and gross revenue from tax returns be submitted (which is the standard) instead of income figures; Change of Occupancy is further defined; Appendix B is revised to reflect the latest published 2016 Business License Class Schedule By NAICS Code. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | |
| IMPACT IF DENIED: | | The city would not be using the latest NAICS Code; ambiguity would exist because the business license period would not be clearly defined; Annexed businesses would not be required to obtain a city business license; Income figures would still be used to determine rates instead of the required state and federal gross receipts and gross revenue; and, the latest NAICS Code Classes would not be stated. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | |
| IMPACT IF APPROVED: | | The Business License Program would clearly specify that it would be utilizing the latest NAICS and methodology for determining business license fees while eliminating ambiguity and confusion arising from the existing Business License ordinance. |
