The license collector shall not issue any license hereunder unless and until he receives
the approval of the sheriff and verifies with the planning department that the proposed
business may be conducted at the location stated pursuant to applicable zoning regulations
and that a valid use permit, if required, is in existence for such business. Once
such approval and verification have been received, the license collector shall notify
the applicant of the amount of the corporate surety bond or cash deposit which shall
be required prior to issuance of the license. The amount of such bond or deposit shall
be as specified by resolution of the board of supervisors. The purpose of such bond
or deposit is to insure that upon termination of the proposed business all junk and
secondhand goods shall be removed from the premises. Upon receipt of a corporate surety
bond or cash deposit in the required amount and in a form approved by county counsel
and payment of the required license fee, the license collector shall issue the license
applied for. Said bond shall be deposited by the license collector with the county
clerk.
