The city shall not be bound by an error of the tax collector or employees of the city in issuing business certificates contrary to the terms of this chapter.

Failure to comply with the provisions of this chapter shall constitute grounds for the refusal, suspension or revocation of the business certificate.

If a business certificate is issued and thereafter the business certificate holder is in violation of any certificate of occupancy requirements, zoning regulation, or other city permits, said business certificate is voidable and subject to suspension and/or revocation. (Ord. 1921 NCS §2 (part), 1993.)
