Section 19-7-5.02.1.11 - Annual License Renewal ApplicationA. The Commissioner shall on or before April 30 of each year, forward a "Notice of Renewal" by regular United States mail to each licensee at his or its last known mailing address. The "Notice of Renewal" will contain an application that shall be properly filled out by the person whose name will appear on the license, signed and returned to the State Fire Marshal's Office. B. After depositing the "Notice of Renewal" in the United States mail, the Commissioner shall have no other duty or obligation to notify the licensee of the expiration of his or its annual license. The failure of the licensee to obtain a renewal license on or before June 30 of the ensuing license period shall act as an automatic suspension of the license unless the Commissioner, for good cause shown in writing and the payment of an amount equal to double the renewal fee for said delinquency, lifts the suspension and issues the renewal license. During the period of suspension, any practice by the licensee under the color of such license shall be deemed a violation of this chapter. If a license renewal application is not received from the licensee within thirty (30) days of the date of license suspension, the licensee shall be required to remove or cover-up all forms of advertisement (signage) identifying the retail business. 1. All applicants and licensees shall comply with the bonding and general liability requirements as established Miss. Code Ann. § 75-49-11 (Rev. 2008) and as described in Rule 5.02.1 -12 of this regulation. 2. Annual renewals of a retailer's license shall require, as a condition precedent, that the retailer verify by oath or affirmation that all retail sales lots that he/or she maintains are done so in accordance with all rules and regulations promulgated by the Commissioner and that each lot has three (3) or more new or used Factory-Built homes located thereon for retail sale as a residential dwelling or for any other use at the time of application. Annual renewals of a developer's license shall require, as a condition precedent, that the developer verify and submit a copy of legal documentation indicating that the developer has five (5) or more locations for a Factory-Built home/land package. 3. With return of the annual licensure application, it shall be the responsibility of each retailer, developer and installer/transporter to request in writing the number of truck decals needed for their transporter vehicles (toter). A decal is to be placed on the driver and passengers doors of each transport vehicle. Escort vehicles are not required to have decals. 19 Miss. Code. R. 7-5.02.1.11
