(a)

Any person who wishes to operate commercial charter boat runs initiating from the Biloxi Small Craft Harbor boat ramp must obtain a permit from the city for an annual fee of $500.00. These permits shall be issued by the Port Division and shall be evidenced by decal to be displayed on the hull of the vessel from which the commercial charter boat run is being made.

Prior to the issuance of such a permit the applicant must show the same proof of insurance, in the same amount of coverage, as commercial charter tenants of the Biloxi Small Craft Harbor must provide to the city.

(b)

Each violation of the provisions of this section shall be a separate misdemeanor subject to the penalties imposed by section 1-1-8 of this Code of Ordinances, and the individuals responsible for such violation shall be removed from the Biloxi Small Craft Harbor.
