§ 75-6. License required; application; issuance; renewal.

A. 

For the license year beginning January 1, 1995, and each license year thereafter, every person desiring to continue to engage in or hereafter to begin to engage in the business of acting as a contractor in the Township shall, on or before the first day of January of the license year or prior to commencing business in such license year, make application for a license to act as a contractor in the Township.

B. 

Such application shall be made by the completion of an application furnished by the Code Official and the payment of the prescribed license fee. Each application must contain the information required hereinafter by this chapter and must present satisfactory proof of insurance. Each application for a license shall be signed by the applicant if a natural person, and in the case of an association or a partnership, by a member or partner thereof, and in the case of a corporation, by an officer thereof.

C. 

Each authorized successful applicant shall be issued a license, which license shall be in the form of a wallet-sized card and in the form of a vehicle bumper sticker. Every licensed contractor, while actually acting as a contractor in the Township, shall carry said license card with him and shall display it to the Code Official or his representatives upon request to do so. Every licensed contractor shall at all times display his bumper sticker license on the rear bumper of the vehicle he primarily uses in his activities as a contractor.

D. 

All contractors licenses shall expire at 12:00 midnight on December 31 of each license year unless the license is revoked or suspended prior thereto under the terms of this chapter. A person with an unexpired license which has not been revoked or suspended during the current license year who makes application for a license for the following license year need not complete an application form, but must only submit the required license and, if he qualifies for the following license year, he will be issued a new license card and bumper sticker for the following license year.
