Section 5.04.250 Failure to file statement.
A. If any person fails to file any
required statement within the time prescribed or if, after
demand therefor made by the collector, he fails to file a corrected statement, or if any person
subject to the tax imposed by this chapter fails to apply for a license, the collector may determine
the amount of license tax due from such person by means of such information as he may be able
to obtain.
B. If the collector is not satisfied
with the information supplied in applications or statements
filed, he may determine the amount of any license tax due by means of any information he may
be able to obtain.
C. If such a determination is made,
the collector shall give notice of the amount so assessed
by serving it personally or by depositing it in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed
to the person so assessed at his last known address. Such person may, within fifteen days after
the mailing or serving of such notice, make application in writing to the collector for a hearing on
the amount of the license tax. If such application is made, the collector shall cause the matter to
be set for hearing within fifteen days before the city council. The collector shall give at least ten
days' notice to such person of the time and place of hearing in the manner prescribed above for
serving notices of assessment. The city council shall consider all evidence produced and shall
make findings thereon, which shall be final. Notice of such findings shall be served upon the
applicant in the manner prescribed above for serving notices of assessment. (Ord. 470 § 2 (part),
