In order to prevent the illegal importation into this city of tangible personal property
which is subject to the tax, and to strengthen and make more effective the manner
and method of enforcing payment of the tax imposed by this article, the treasurer
is hereby authorized and empowered to put into operation a system of permits whereby
any person, or dealer, may import tangible personal property by truck, automobile,
or other means of transportation other than a common carrier, without having the truck,
automobile or other means of transportation seized and subjected to legal proceedings
for its forfeiture. This system of permits shall require the person, or dealer who
desires to import tangible personal property into this city, which property is subject
to tax imposed by this article, to apply to the treasurer or his assistant for a permit
stating the kind of vehicle to be used, the name of the driver, the license number
of the vehicle, the kind or character of tangible personal property to be imposed,
the date, the name and address of the consignee, and such other information as the
treasurer may deem proper or necessary. The permits shall be free of cost to the applicant
and may be obtained at the office of the treasurer.
