Be accompanied by the required license fee as established in the following schedule:

Schedule. If the applicant has been operating the business to be closed out under a valid city business license for:

1.

A period of six months or less prior to the date the application is filed, one hundred ten dollars,

2.

More than six months but less than two years, twenty-seven dollars and fifty cents,

3.

More than two years, five dollars and fifty cents.

The licenses issued for the respective fees hereinabove set forth in this schedule shall authorize the conducting of the respective sales therein licensed upon the days mentioned in the application. It is provided, however, that all sales made under such license must be made within the period of thirty consecutive days including and following the first day of sale specified in the license.
