In accordance with the provisions of MGL c. 62C, § 49A, no license or permit shall be issued to any individual or business operating within the Town unless said applicant has certified in writing, under the pains and penalties of perjury, that he/she has complied with all laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts relating to taxes, including local taxes under the provisions of MGL c. 59.
