(a) A manager of an auction sale is defined as any person conducting, carrying on
or managing the business of an auctioneer.
(b) If the person by or for whom the auctioneering is done is an itinerant merchant
or itinerant vendor of goods, wares or merchandise, the license fee shall be higher,
as designated in the Master Fee Resolution. For the purpose of this section, an itinerant
merchant or itinerant vendor of goods is defined as a person, whether as principal
or agent, who engages in a temporary or transient business in the city, selling goods,
wares or merchandise, and who for such purpose leases or occupies a room, store building,
structure or place in the city for the exhibition or sale of such goods, wares or
merchandise. Such person shall not escape the payment of the higher license fee by
temporarily associating himself with any local dealer, tradesman, merchant or auctioneer,
or by conducting such temporary or transient business in connection with, or as part
of, or in the name of, any local dealer, tradesman, merchant or auctioneer.
(c) Any person who has received a license as auctioneer shall not permit another person
to conduct an auction under his license. (Orig. Ord. 4603; Am. Ord. 68-30, 1968; Am.
