A. If, as a result of such investigation, the applicant's character and business responsibility are found to be unsatisfactory, the town clerk shall so endorse upon the application and set forth the reasons therefor, and thereupon shall notify the applicant of the disapproval of such application and that no license will be issued thereunder.

B. If, as a result of such investigation, the applicant's character and business responsibility are found satisfactory, the town clerk shall endorse the same on the application and, upon receipt of the necessary fees as set forth in this chapter, shall execute and deliver to the applicant a license to carry on such business within the corporate limits of the town for a period of time, not to exceed fourteen (14) days. (Ord. 14, Series 1982)
