4-6-7: WAIT LIST FOR NEW LICENSE APPLICATIONS:
A. On the effective date of the ordinance codified in this chapter, the wait list that the town instituted on November 2, 2021, shall be divided into four (4) separate lists identified by mapped areas (i.e., the resort properties zone, zone 1, zone 2, and zone 3).
1. A person whose name was put on the wait list beginning November 2, 2021, shall be prioritized on the list in the order in which they were placed on the initial list but categorized by zone on the effective date of the ordinance codified in this chapter.
2. New owners requesting to be added to the wait list as of the effective date of the ordinance codified in this chapter shall be placed on the wait list in the order in which the request is received and categorized by zone.
B. As new licenses become available in a zone, the owner at the top of the list in that zone will be contacted and has fourteen (14) business days to submit a completed application to the finance director.
C. If such owner fails to submit a complete license application to the finance director within the fourteen (14) day period, or if such owner notifies the finance director that it declines to proceed with an application, the finance director shall promptly notify the next owner on the wait list and shall continue on the list until the available license is issued.
D. Only the current property owners can request to be placed on the waitlist. If the property sells, the place on the wait list is void and the new buyer will have to complete a new wait list request after purchasing the property. (Ord. 28, Series 2022)
