34-29-4. License -- Bond -- Transfer.
Any person licensed under the provisions of this chapter shall pay an annual license fee in
such amount as may be determined by the board of city commissioners, city council, board of
town trustees, or the county legislative body, and before such license shall be issued shall deposit
with the city, town or county treasurer a bond in the penal sum of $1,000, with two or more
sureties to be approved by the officers designated by ordinance. The bond shall be made payable
to the city, town or county where such business is to be carried on and shall be conditioned that
the person applying for the license will comply with this chapter and will pay all damages
occasioned to any person by reason of any misstatement, misrepresentation, fraud or deceit of any
person, or by any other violation of this chapter, in carrying on the business for which a license is
granted. If at any time in the opinion of the officers designated by ordinance to approve such
bond, the sureties or any of them shall become irresponsible, the person holding such license
shall, upon notice from the city, town or county treasurer, give a new bond, to be approved as
hereinafter provided. Failure to give a new bond within ten days after such notice shall operate as
a revocation of such license, and the license certificate shall be immediately returned to the city,
town or county treasurer, who shall destroy the same. Licenses granted under this chapter may be
transferred by order of the board of city commissioners, city council, board of town trustees, or
the county executive, but before such transfer shall be authorized, the applicant for the same shall
deposit with the city, town or county treasurer the sum of $5, which shall be endorsed upon the
application, and the person to whom such license is transferred shall also deposit such a bond as
is required by the applicant for an original license as hereinbefore prescribed, to be approved in
the same manner.
