§ 21-167. Fees.

(a)

The application and license fees for an operator's license shall be established by resolution. The city may set different application and license fees for an applicant who has not previously been issued an operator's license for the calendar year in which he or she submits an application and an applicant who has been issued an operator's license for the calendar year in which he or she submits an application and who is required to obtain a new operator's license due to a change in the location of an open-air market or park-and-swap operation.

(b)

Each applicant for a park-and-swap operator's license shall submit a full set of fingerprints to the City of Glendale for the purpose of obtaining a state and federal criminal records check pursuant to A.R.S. § 41-1750 and Public Law (PL) 92-544. The department of safety is authorized to exchange this fingerprint data with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. In addition to any other fees imposed under this article, an applicant for a park-and-swap operator's license shall pay an amount necessary to cover the costs of federal fingerprint processing or federal criminal history record information checks. The specific amount of such additional fee shall be set by administrative order based upon information received from the Department of Public Safety as to the cost of such fingerprint processing and record information checks. The additional fees collected pursuant to this subsection shall be transmitted to the Department of Public Safety as required by Arizona Revised Statutes section 41-1750, as amended.

(c)

No application fee or fingerprinting fee paid pursuant to this article shall be returned to an applicant if his or her application is withdrawn or denied. No license fee paid pursuant to this article shall be returned to a licensee if his or her license is suspended or revoked.

(d)

The application and license fees required by this section may be waived in whole or in part by the city manager or his or her designee if at least ten percent (10%) of the operator's yearly gross revenues from the open-air market or park-and-swap operation will be received by a nonprofit entity with tax-exempt status under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3) and if such entity is located within the city or has some other affiliation within the city. A request for a waiver shall be made on forms provided by the city and shall be accompanied by a copy of the nonprofit entity's tax-exempt certification from the Internal Revenue Service and a written verification from such entity of the portion of the operator's gross revenues to be received by it. If the nonprofit entity receives from ten to fifty percent (10%-50%) of the operator's gross revenues, the city may waive up to fifty percent (50%) of the application and license fees. If the nonprofit entity receives more than fifty percent (50%) of the operator's gross revenues, the city may waive all of the application and license fees.
