§ 363.130. Application for new premises.

(a) If the application is for the issuance or renewal of a license for premises at which the licensed business is not then being conducted, the applicant shall also provide to the license inspector of the police department a verified statement of intent as to where, when and how he or she plans to house the business, including with the statement, all pertinent documentary proof and evidence thereof, including leases, contracts and architectural plans.

(b)

If the application is granted pursuant to such application, the city shall investigate and determine at appropriate times whether the statement of intent upon which the issued license was conditioned is being effectuated. If it is found that it is not being carried out in a timely and diligent manner, the license may be revoked or renewal thereof may be denied, but in no case shall such a license continue in effect if the licensed business is found not to have become operational within one (1) year from the date of issuance of the new or renewed license, unless such license is for an establishment under construction within that year but not yet completed, in which case one (1) additional year shall be granted for the licensed business to become operational.
