map entitled, City of Roanoke - Subdivision Jurisdiction, dated October 10, 1977, on file in the
Office of the City Clerk.
BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of Roanoke as follows:
1. That Section 1, Purpose, and Section 2, Applicability of regulations, of Chapter
2.1, Land Subdivision Regulations, of Title XVI, Planning and Subdivisions, of the Code of the
City of Roanoke (1956), as amended, be, and said sections are hereby amended and reordained so
as to read and provide as follows:
Section 1. Purpose.
The purpose of this Chapter is to establish certain standards
and minimum requirements and to prescribe procedures to assure the
orderly subdivision and development of land within the corporate limits
of the City and certain land outside the corporate limits of the City
described in Sec. 2 of this Chapter as provided for in Section 15.1-467,
Code of Virginia (1950), as amended, and the Charter of the City of Roanoke.
Section 2. Applicability of regulations.
(a) No person shall divide or subdivide, or cause a subdivision
to be made, by deed or map, of any tract of land located within the cor-
porate limits of the City as the same may, from time to time, be
established according to law or within the area of Roanoke County
inside the green line on the map, entitled City of Roanoke - Subdivision
Jurisdiction, dated October 10, 1977, on file in the Office of the City Clerk,
provided that the provisions of this Chapter shall not be applicable within
the corporate limits of any other municipality. In those areas of Roanoke
County to which this Chapter has application, the administration and enforce-
ment of this Chapter insofar as it pertains to public improvements as
authorized in Section 15.1-466, Code of Virginia (1950), as amended, shall
be vested in the governing body of the political subdivision in which the
improvements are or are to be located. Ail other provisions of this Chapter
shall apply to all territory, both within and without the City, to which
this Chapter has application.
113
(b) Where a single lot or parcel of land is proposed to be
divided into not more than two parcels, any one or more of the
requirements of this Chapter may be waived in writing by the agent
responsible for the administration and the enforcement of the
regulations contained in this Chapter, provided that such division
(1) conforms in area and street frontage to the regulations and
requirements of the zoning district regulations of the governmental
entity wherein the land lies, (2) does not involve any new public
street, road, or easement of access, (3) does not offer opportunity
to obstruct any natural drainage or planned major highway, (4) does
not adversely affect any part of any adopted plan, and (5) does not
in any way violate the intent of this Chapter or any applicable zoning
ordinance. In any case, however, upon application made and for good cause
shown, the agent responsible for the administration and enforcement of
the regulations contained in this Chapter in the City, may waive, further,
not more than one per cent of the minimum requirements relating to area
and street frontage.
(c) Whenever the owner or developer of any tract of land located
within the territory to which this Chapter applies desires to subdivide
the same, he shall submit a plat of the proposed subdivision with reference
to known or permanent monuments to the Agent and the City Engineer in
accordance with the requirements of this Chapter. No owner or developer
shall subdivide land without making and recording a plat of such subdivision
in the Office of the Clerk of the appropriate Circuit Court, and no such
plat of any subdivision shall be recorded unless and until it shall have
been submitted to and approved by the Agent and the City Engineer in
accordance with the regulations set forth in this Chapter.
(d) No land shall be subdivided for residential use if the planning
commission in the exercise of its considered judgment, after hearing all
proper evidence and after referral to the county planning commission if
the land to be subdivided lies wholly or in part within the county, deems
such land unsuitable for such purpose.
(e) This Chapter bears no relation to any private easement, covenant,
agreement or restriction and the responsibility of enforcing such private
easement, covenant, agreement, or restriction is not implied to any public
official. Whenever this Chapter calls for more restrictive standards than
those required by private contract, the provisions of this Chapter shall
control.
2. The City Clerk is directed to forward attested copies of this ordinance and the
map incorporated by reference in this ordinance to the Board of Supervisors of Roanoke County,
the Roanoke County Planning Commission, the City of Roanoke Planning Commission, and the Clerk
of the Circuit Court of Roanoke County, and the Clerk of the Circuit Court of the City of

management shall prepare and recommend to the city manager on or before January 15th
of each year a pay plan for the city manager's consideration in the preparation of his
recommended annual budget for the city council's consideration. The council shall adopt

and minority and employee members shall be distributed as evenly as possible among the
panels.

209
(b) Panel hearings shall be conducted as follows:
(1) The panel shall determine the propriety of
attendance at the hearing of persons not having a direct contribution
to make to the hearing and may exclude those without a direct contribu-
tion. The grievant and the council-appointed officer party to the
proceedings or his designee shall be permitted to be present at all
times except during deliberation of the panel.
(2) The panel may ask, at the beginning of the hearing,
for statements from the grievant and the administration (or their
respective representatives) clarifying the issues involved and summarizing
the evidence to be presented.
(3) The burden of proof shall be and remain at every
stage of the hearing the burden of the party initiating the grievance.
Such burden shall be deemed to have been carried when a preponderance
of the evidence introduced substantiates the grievant's claim. The
grievant or his representative shall present his claims, proofs, and
witnesses who shall be sworn and who shall submit to questions or other
examination. The administration shall, thereafter, present its defense
to the claims and charges of the grievant with like formality as required
of the grievant in presenting the case in chief. The aforesaid representa-
tive of either the grievant or the administration may be a duly qualified
attorney-at-law, or any other person selected by either of them. Any
expense incurred by reason of such representation shall be borne by the
party on whose behalf such representative appears. The panel may, at its
discretion, vary this procedure but shall afford due process to all parties
and witnesses for presentation of any material or relevant proofs.
(4) Exhibits, when offered by the grievant or the administra-
tion, shall be received in evidence by the panel and, when so received, shall
be marked and made part of the record.
(5) The parties shall produce such additional evidence as
the panel may deem necessary to an understanding and determination of the
grievance. The panel with advice from the legal advisor shall be the judge
of admissibility of the evidence offered. Ail evidence shall be taken in the
presence of the panel and of the parties.
(6) At the conclusion of presentation of evidence, the panel
chairman shall specifically inquire of both the administration and the grievant,
or their respective representatives, whether they have any further proofs to
offer or witnesses to be heard. Upon receiving negative replies, the chairman
shall declare the hearing closed, and the panel may deliberate in executive
session in appropriate cases.
(7) The decision of the panel shall be arrived at by a majority
vote in open session.
(8) The hearing may be reopened by the panel for good cause shown
on its own motion or upon application of the grievant or the administration at
any time before the written decision is distributed.
(9) A transcript of the proceedings relating to any grievance
shall be provided upon request of either party. The party requesting the
transcript shall request such transcript in writing and shall pay the expense
of preparing such transcript.
(10) The panel shall file, in writing, a statement setting forth
findings of fact and its decision based thereon, signed by a panel member
concurring in the same, with a signed copy forwarded to each party in interest
and to the members of the commission not more than five (5) working days following
adjournment of the hearing. A panel member who dissents from the majority
decision may file a written dissenting opinion.
(11) Upon good cause shown, at any time prior to decision, a panel
convened to hear a grievance may, upon majority vote, request the chairman of
the commission to convene the entire commission to hear a particular grievance,
and the chairman shall do so. Such decision to convene the entire commission
by a panel may be made at any time prior to the rendering of a decision by the panel.
Such full commission hearing shall comply in all respects to the provisions of this
code relating to panel hearings, provided, however, the full commission may in
reaching a decision elect to consider a matter on the basis of the record created
in a panel hearing. In such cases, the decision of the full commission shall be
final.
(12) A panel or the full commission when hearing a grievance is
hereby authorized to fashion a remedy on behalf of the prevailing party which
is fair, just, reasonable and equitable to all parties; provided, however, no
such remedy shall place a grievant in any better position than he would have
achieved but for the wrongful act giving rise to the grievance.
Sec. 6. Employee rights; free exercise thereof.
Employees of the city shall have the right to present before the
commission or the council their view concerning any matters relating to the
employment relationship, and may process any complaint or grievance at any
administrative level or to the commission or one of its panels and, in the
exercise of these rights, employees shall be and are assured of freedom from
unreasonable interference, discrimination or reprisal; and any of such actions
taken by the administration or any of its employees as a result of the exercise
of rights guaranteed herein shall be grounds for a grievance.
210
Sec. 7. Decisions; failure to comply.
If a grievant, having processed his grievance through the procedure
established for the purpose, fails to comply with either commission or panel
decisions he shall be subject to administrative disciplinary action by the
appropriate council-appointed officer which shall be non-grievable and final.
Should the administration fail to comply with such a decision, the grievant
may, after certification of the fact of such administrative noncompliance by
the full commission, appeal to the city council for appropriate relief.
2. That this ordinance shall have no effect on the present membership of the
Personnel and Employment Practices Commission or the terms of the present members and such
members shall continue to serve the terms to which they were heretofore appointed.
3. That this ordinance shall be in full force and effect from and after January 1,
1979; provided, however, all matters relating to grievances, complaints and personnel
relations filed with the Personnel and Employment Practices Commission prior to January l,

excess over the twenty percent (20%) to a subsequent fiscal
year by agreeing to pay interest annually at the average
weighted discount rate charged member banks in the Fifth

period of deferral. Such deferred payment shall be made
at the earliest time that the twenty percent (20%) n~ximum
amount is not reached.

consequences to the City's proposed Back Creek impoundment facility and to the City's Sewage

A RESOLUTION requesting Roanoke County and the Roanoke County Public Service Authority,
as their interests may dictate, to expeditiously advise the City of their interest, if any, in
participating with the City in the construction of three sewer interceptors, Tinker Creek, Glade
Creek and Ore Branch.
WHEREAS, by Resolution No. 24413, adopted by this Council on November 20, 1978, the City
of Roanoke requested Botetourt County, the City of Salem, the Town of Vinton and Roanoke County to
advise the City whether or not such localities were interested in joining the City in construction
of certain joint-use sewer interceptor projects (Tinker Creek, Glade Creek and Ore Branch);
WHEREAS, the foregoing request to the City's neighboring jurisdictions was made pursuant
to the 1972 Sewage Treatment Contract which requires any jurisdiction contemplating an interceptor
project to notify the other signatory jurisdictions of such contemplated project and offer the
opportunity to such jurisdictions to participate;
WHEREAS, Botetourt County responded promptly to the City that it was interested in parti-
cipating in the proposed project while the City of Salem and the Town of Vinton promptly declined
to participate and Roanoke County provided no clear response;
WHEREAS, the City of Roanoke must cause construction of these interceptors to commence in
the immediate future to meet annexation mandates;
WHEREAS, K. B. Kiser, Director of Utilities and Operations, by letter of March 21, 1979,
to Botetourt County, Roanoke County and the Roanoke County Public Service Authority set forth an
equitable cost allocation among the jurisdictions desiring to participate in these projects, premised
on the logical assumption that each jurisdiction's cost should be proportionate to the sewage
capacity requested by each jurisdiction in the lines to be constructed, and requested the foregoing
jurisdictions to advise of their interests in participating in these interceptor construction
projects;
WHEREAS, Botetourt County has responded in a positive and timely fashion, but Roanoke
County and the Roanoke County Public Service Authority have failed to respond or advise as to the
status of their consideration of the City's request, in spite of the passage of more than one
month;
WHEREAS, the failure of Roanoke County and the Roanoke County Public Service Authority to
respond to the City's reasonable request is not in the best interests of either jurisdiction inasmuch
as it precludes desirable development in the County and complicates orderly planning for the City's
sewer system;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Roanoke as follows:
1. That the City of Roanoke implores Roanoke County to show good faith in this matter
which is of importance to the entire Roanoke Valley and respond by May 15, 1979;
2. That, if it is necessary for the City of Roanoke to proceed to construct these
projects without the cooperation and participation of Roanoke County, it is the intention of the
City to vigorously seek modification of the 208 Areawide Wastewater Plan of the Fifth Planning
District and to construct such interceptors of a size appropriate to serve the needs of the City
alone thereby complicating future development of the County;
3. That appreciation is extended to Botetourt County for its prompt responses and cooperat
in the proposed interceptor project; and
4. That the City Clerk is directed to forward an attested copy of this resolution to
the governing bodies of Botetourt County and Roanoke County and the Board of Directors of the
Roanoke County Public Service Authority.

A RESOLUTION calling upon the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors to abate the nuisance
created by the lighted athletic complex at Hidden Valley Intermediate School in the City of
Roanoke.
WHEREAS, Roanoke County has developed a lighted athletic complex at Hidden Valley
Intermediate School immediately adjacent to Medmont Lake in the City of Roanoke without the
consent or cooperation of the City;
WHEREAS, high intensity lights at this facility have gone into use for the first time
within the last several weeks resulting in many residents of Medmont Lake having their yards
illuminated as if daylight until late hours of night, creating a hazard for motorists on Coral
Ridge Road and exacerbating already existing problems of noise and pollution caused by the
athletic complex;
WHEREAS, Medmont Lake residents appeared before the Roanoke County School Board on

area by presenting a petition with copies to the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors signifying
the opposition of more than seventy-five residents and neighbors;
WHEREAS, the School Board agreed over vigorous opposition to permit the lighting of
the athletic complex and promised the protestants that the noise level would be low, that the
field would be used for baseball and softball only and that numerous trees would be planted to
provide screening; however, all the foregoing promises have been breached;
WHEREAS, this facility is not in keeping with the residential-character of the neighborhood
and may constitute a violation of the City's Zoning and Public Nuisance Ordinances;

that a public nuisance exists with respect to any parcel, he may mail
by certified mail to its owner at the latter's address as determined
from public records written notice that there exists a public nuisance
with respect to the parcel and that such public nuisance shall be abated
within fourteen days following the mailing. In case the owner's address

be reasonable.
Section 4. Abatement of public nuisance.
If the owner fails to abate the public nuisance as required, and if
the City Manager after the hearing described above, if requested, deems
it necessary to protect the public health, safety, order or convenience, he
may direct in writing that city forces abate such public nuisance; or, the
City Manager may contract for this abatement on behalf of the city with a

city, provided that he do so prior to commencement of abatement by city
personnel or contractors.
Section 5. Accounting for abatement costs.
The City Manager shall keep an account of the cost of abating public nuisances

and subject matter of the hearing. The notice shall advise the owner of
his right to object to, be heard upon, and to contest the confirmation of
the report and assessment. The notice shall further provide, and it is
hereby ordained that, upon the confirmation by the City Manager of the
reports of the abatement cost, service charge and penalty they shall consti-
tute special assessments against the owner and the parcel, a personal
obligation of the owner and a lien upon the owner's parcel from the date
and time of the recordation of a notice of lien, and from the date of such
confirmation, until paid, bear interest at the legal rate.
There shall be included with the notice a statement to the owner of
the abatement cost, service charge and penalty. The statement shall inform
the owner that if he pays the fees and charges prior to the confirmation of
the reports and assessment lists, the City will forgive the penalty assessment.
Section 7. Post-abatement hearing.
At the hearing, the City Manager shall hear any objections which may be
raised by any owner liable to be assessed, confirm, modify or reject the
reports and assessment lists as he may deem necessary, and send those
confirmed to the Chief of Billings and Collections for collection of the
respective special assessments.

pared by the City Attorney to be recorded in the Clerk's Office of the

amended, by adding new sections 33.3 through 33.7, authorizing the creation of historic districts,
establishing regulations therefor, establishing an Architectural Review Board, specifying the
circumstances under which Council's decisions in regard to historic district regulations may be
appealed, and defining further the rights of property owners within historic districts.
BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of Roanoke as follows:
That Chapter 4.1, Zoning, of Title XV, Construction, Alteration and Use of Land, Buildings
and Other Structures, of the Code of the City of Roanoke (1956), as amended, be and said chapter
is hereby amended to include new sections 33.3 through 33.7, to read and provide as follows:
Section 33.3. H-1 Historic district; intent; official zoning map.
1. Intent: The designation of historic districts is intended to
call attention to the architectural, cultural and historic importance
of certain landmarks, buildings and structures, and areas within the
City, to encourage their preservation, protection and maintenance, and
the development and maintenance of appropriate settings and environment
for such landmarks, buildings and structures, and areas. To this end,
an Architectural Review Board is hereinafter created, the purpose of
which shall be to protect designated historic landmarks, buildings and
structures, and historic areas against destruction or the encroachment
of architecturally incompatible buildings and structures, including signs.
2. The City Council may, in the manner provided for amending,
supplementing or changing this Chapter, including the schedule of
district regulations and the official zoning map, designate as an
historic district appropriate areas:
a. adjacent to landmarks within the city designated
as historic by the Virginia Historic Landmarks Commission;
b. adjacent to any other buildings or structures within
the City having important historic, architectural or
cultural interest;
c. containing buildings or places in which historic events
occurred or having special public value because of notable
architectural or other features relating to the cultural or
artistic heritage of the community, of such significance as
to warrant conservation and preservation.
3. Any historic district designated by City Council as provided
for above shall be shown as an overlay to the existing underlying
district on the Official 1976 Zoning Map, City of Roanoke, as amended;
as such, the provisions in this chapter for historic districts shall
serve as a supplement to the underlying zoning district regulations.
Any historic district designated as provided for above shall be placed
as an overlaying district on the Official 1976 Zoning Map in the manner
set forth in Section 3 of this chapter for amending such Map. Where a
conflict exists between the provisions of this Chapter relating to historic
districts and those of any underlying zoning districts, the more
restrictive provisions shall apply.
Section 33.4
Historic district regulations; certificate of
appropriateness.
1. No building or structure, including signs, shall be erected,
reconstructed, altered or restored within any historic district until a
certificate of appropriateness for the same has been issued by the
authority of the Architectural Review Board hereinafter provided for,
or, on appeal, by the City Council, upon a finding that said erection,
reconstruction, alteration or restoration is architecturally compatible
with the historic landmarks, buildings or structures therein.
Architectural compatibility shall be judged in terms, among other things,
of a proposed structure's mass, dimensions, materials, color, ornamentation,
architectural style, lighting, landscaping, projections, and aesthetic
acceptability, as they relate to existing buildings and structures in a
designated historic district.
406
2. No historic landmark, building or structure within any
historic district shall be razed, demolished or moved until a
certificate of appropriateness for the razing, demolition or moving
thereof has been issued by the Architectural Review Board, or, on
appeal, by the City Council after consultation with such Board. Before
the Board issues such a certificate of appropriateness, it shall
consider, among other things, whether it would have an adverse impact
on the public interest, the effect upon the historic character of the
district, its setting and environment, and the uniqueness of the landmark,
building or structure.
3. Any property owner aggrieved by any decision of the Architectural
Reveiw Board may present to the City Council a petition appealing such
decision, provided such petition is filed within thirty (30) days after the
decision is rendered by the Board. The City Council may reverse or modify
the decision of the Architectural Review Board, in whole or in part, or
it may affirm the decision of the Board.
4. Application for a certificate of appropriateness required by
this section shall be made to the Office of City Planning on forms to
be provided by said Office.
5. In such cases where certificates of appropriateness are required
by this section, the City Building Commissioner shall issue no permit for
the erection, reconstruction, alteration, restoration, razing, demolition
or moving of any structure, building or sign until such certificate has
been issued. Once the City Building Commissioner has issued such a
permit, he shall routinely inspect the work being performed to insure
compliance with the terms of the certificate of appropriateness.
6. Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent the ordinary
maintenance of any building or structure in an historic district which does
not require a building permit, nor to prevent the demolition or razing of
any structure or building which the City Building Commissioner certifies
in writing is required for public safety because of an unsafe or dangerous
condition. "Ordinary maintenance" within the meaning of this section shall
include painting, provided that the color of a building or structure is not
changed.

out of three years after filing an affidavit of financial condition; and providing for an emergency.
BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of Roanoke as follows:
1. That subsections (a), (b) and (c) of Section 15, Exemption of certain taxes on

subsections are hereby amended and reordained so as to read and provide as follows:
Section 15. Exemption of certain taxes on property of certain
elderly and permanently and tOtally disabled persons.
(a) General provisions.
The Commissioner of Revenue shall, upon application made and
within limits as hereinafter provided, order exemption of tax on real prop-
erty owned by and occupied as the sole dwelling house of a person or
persons not less than sixty-five years of age or a person or persons
less than sixty-five years of age determined to be permanently and
totally disabled as defined in this section, upon the terms and conditions
hereinafter set out. A dwelling jointly held by a husband and wife may
qualify for exemption if either spouse is over sixty-five years of age or
is disabled.
(b) Financial Eligibility.
To be eligible for such exemption, the total combined income during
the immediately preceding calendar year from all sources of the owners
and relatives of the owners living in the dwelling house on such property
shall not exceed twelve thousand dollars, provided that the first four
thousand dollars of income of each relative, other than spouse, of the
owner, or owners, who is living in the dwelling shall not be included in
such total, and the net combined financial worth of such persons,
including equitable interests, as of the thirty-first day of December
of the immediately preceding calendar year, excluding the value of the
dwelling house and the land, not exceeding one acre upon which it is
situated, shall not exceed fifty thousand dollars. No person or persons
receiving public assistance, other than medical assistance of any form,
shall be eligible for the within provided exemption.
A change in ownership to a spouse less than sixty-five years of age
which results solely from the death of his or her qualified spouse shall
result in a pro rata exemption for the then current taxable year. Such
pro rated portion shall be determined by multiplying the amount of the exemp-
tion by a fraction wherein the number of complete months of the year such
property was properly eligible for such exemption is the numerator and the
number twelve is the denominator.
(c) Application for exemption.
The owner or owners claiming such exemption shall file with the Commissioner
of Revenue an affidavit setting forth an identification of the taxable real
estate, the names of the persons occupying such real estate, that the total
combined income of the owners and relatives living in the dwelling on such
property for the preceding calendar year did not exceed twelve thousand dollars,

other than spouse, of the owner, or owners, who is living in the dwelling shall
not be included in such total, and that the total combined net worth of such
owners and relatives as of the thirty-first day of December of the immediately
preceding calendar year did not exceed fifty thousand dollars. Such affidavit
shall be filed annually or, in lieu thereof, such affidavit may be filed on a
three-year cycle with an annual certification by the taxpayer that no information
contained on the last preceding affidavit filed has been changed to violate
the limitations and conditions provided herein. Such affidavit or certificate

persons seeking such exemption as may be reasonably necessary in
determining the qualifications therefor. Such further inquiries
shall be answered under oath. The Commissioner of Revenue may also
require the production of certified tax returns to establish the
income or financial worth of an applicant for tax relief.

Section 3. Amusement.
The term of the license to conduct for profit a theatrical
performance, public exhibition or any form of public amusement
in this city shall be one day.
No license or license tax for a theatrical performance,
public exhibition or public amusement shall be required or
assessed when the whole of the net proceeds from the activity
is applied for religious or charitable purposes; when such
activity is promoted by a nonprofit cultural or religious organi-
zation; or when only local amateurs participate in the activity
and no compensation or gain, directly or indirectly, enures
to the benefit of its promoter and the entire net proceeds are
devoted exclusively to defraying its expenses.
Before any license shall be issued the applicant shall deposit
with the Treasurer such sum as the Commissioner may require to
be held as security for the payment of the license tax.
On the day following the expiration of any such daily license
the applicant shall file with the Commissioner a certificate
in writing in form prescribed by the Commissioner and sworn to
before an officer authorized to administer oaths, showing such
gross receipts for the previous day. The Commissioner shall
compute and assess the license tax.
Unless the applicant pays the assessment, he shall not be
entitled to further conduct such activity until the sum is
paid. Further conduct of such activity while the sum is unpaid
shall constitute operation without a license and each day's
operation without a license shall constitute a separate offense.
Upon the termination of the activity in this city and the
payment of all license taxes the City Treasurer shall refund
the deposit to the applicant or to the person making the deposit.
'476
Should the applicant fail to file the certificate of gross
receipts for the last day of operation in this city and

of the operation of the activity, the Commissioner shall assess
the license tax for the last day at the amount of the deposit;
and the city shall retain the deposit in full payment of the license
tax due for that day's operation.
No such license shall be transferable.

The BPOL tax with respect to coin-operated machines shall
be assessed only with respect to gross receipts received from
coin-operated machines operated in this city. Gross receipts
from machines vending merchandise or postage stamps shall be
deemed gross receipts from retail sales.
On or before the thirty-first day of January of each
year, every operator of a coin-operated machine in this
city shall furnish to the Commissioner a complete list
of all machines on location and the address of each location.
Each machine shall have conspicuously located thereon
a decal, sticker or other adhesive label, no less than
one by two inches in size, clearly denoting the operator's
name and address.
Section 5. Contractors.
The license tax for a contractor who has no office in the
state shall be assessed and paid at the prevailing rate on
the amount of gross receipts of the business which he
estimates he will do in the city in each year, and shall be
adjusted by the Commissioner to the actual gross receipts
derived from such business in the city at the end of each
year, or at such time during any year at which he ceases
to do business in the city.
When a contractor has paid a state license, and a local
license required by the jurisdiction in which his principal
office and any branch office may be located, he shall not
be subject to the provisions of this chapter except when
the amount of his business in the city exceeds the sum of
$25,000 in any tax year. In that event, he shall pay a license
tax to be assessed and collected at the prevailing rate on the
gross receipts for the business which he estimates he will do
in the city in each year, which license tax shall be adjusted
to the actual gross receipts derived from such business in the
city at the end of each year, or at such time during any year
at which he ceases to do business in the city.
Ail work subcontracted to a subcontractor by a contractor
shall be included in the gross receipts by both such contractor
and subcontractor as a base for the license tax provided for
in this section.

any portion of the work contracted for to notify the Commissioner
and the Building Commissioner of this city of the subcontracting,
giving amounts subcontracted and the names and addresses of all
persons to whom any portion of the work is subcontracted.
The Commissioner shall, from time to time, furnish the City

of the goods manufactured by him, or by-products of such manufacture
