No license for a peddler, solicitor and transient merchant issued
pursuant to this chapter shall be issued until all applicable fees
and incurred costs have been paid to this Town.

for this purpose. Expenditures from this line item may be made at
the direction of the Town Clerk without further appropriation.

of said line item shall be made available to the applicant by the

regardless of whether or not a license for a peddler, solicitor and
transient merchant has been issued pursuant to this chapter.
