Section 2521(c) of the Tustin City Code provides a penalty for failure to pay the business license tax when due. B. There are presently a number of businesses who have never obtained a business license. If they obtain a business license at this time, they will be subject to penalty fees under Section 2521(c). C. It would be to the benefit of the City if all unlicensed businesses were encouraged to license. The City Council finds that a three month amnesty, during the months of December, 1990, January and February, 1991, during which no penalties would be due for failure to pay license taxes when due, would encourage unlicensed businesses to license during those months. II. The City Council does hereby declare: A. That Section 2521(c) of the Tustin City Code shall be of no force and effect during the months of December, 1990, January and February, 1991. All businesses that pay license fees during that three-month period shall be excused from paying the penalties imposed by such Section. B. Except for the months of December, 1990, January and February, 1991, Section 2521(c) of the Tustin City Code, and all other provisions pertaining to business licenses, shall be in full force and effect.
