vehicle as it started THRi from a parked position A more uniform business licensing system based on gross receipts and providing categories for firms earning over $1 million annually has been proposed by a committee headed by Assistant Mayor Karl Mac-farlane An ordinance incorporating changes in the present licensing regulations is being prepared by Corporation Counsel Jack A Richards In effect the proposal broadens the licensing system and embraces practically all businesses and professional persons with the exception of amusement devices beer licenses and public utilities BOOST CHARGES Additional categories in the schedule for both professional and commercial licenses will increase assessments in cases in which high gross receipts are recorded the assistant mayor said Other members of the committee include Councilmen Grant Thomas and Lon Rothey City Manager Charles Kel-ley said the new schedule probably will have little effect on the city's income from licensing since some will be raised and others lowered Commercial vehicles now exempt on the vehicle license tax up to the amount of the business license paid will no longer be exempt under terms of the new proposal MO EXEMPTION "The commercial vehicle license will have to be paid in addition to other business licenses assessed" the assistant mayor said "Even with the proposed increase charges for such vehicles in Ogden will be less than those assessed in Salt Lake City" he added Commercial vehicles receive parking privileges in metered zones to 1 pm Manager Kelley said an attempt will be made to issue com- mercial licenses only to those firms having an actual need for them ADDITIONAL FEE Gross receipts licenses for businesses which gross over $1 million per annum will pay $200 plus $10 for each $100000 of sales over the first million Under present schedules such firms pay only the first $200 Manager Kelley said "The inequity is that big stores have been paying the same fee as small ones" he stated Licenses for professional and service firms will be broadened to include private detectives detective agencies and merchant patrolmen CEILING LISTED Rates in this category will remain the same except if gross receipts are $10000 to $25000 the license fee will be $25 ever $25000 the fee will be $35 Under the new proposal the fee established for this subsection will be in addition to the license fee for other major business activity However gross sales from the snack bar will not be included in the gross receipts tax imposed on the market "The license in this case is for policing purposes and must be kept separate from the gross receipts license for the grocery store operation" the city manager said Snack bars and cafes will pay a minimum $25 fee plus 50 cents for each person that may be accommodated at stool chair or booth ine impact pushed the Garner vehicle into a parked car owned by Wayne Walker 1350 2500 in Syracuse Mrs Garner was cited for alleged improper start from a parked
