At such time as the application is so approved, the transferee shall pay the annual city liquor license fee.

At such time as the application is so approved, the applicant shall pay the annual city liquor license fee that would have been due on January 1. If the application is withdrawn or disapproved, the prior licensee shall not be required to pay any city liquor license fees unless the department of liquor licenses and control allows the licensee to re-activate the license that was surrendered or canceled in conjunction with the filing of the application for a new license.
