Any resident or group of residents, organization, or club of the City may conduct a garage sale, as defined herein; provided, however, that a license shall first have been obtained from the City. There shall be no tax for a garage sale license obtained prior to the sale. If the license is not obtained prior to the sale, the license tax shall be as presently designated, or as may in the future be amended, in Section 5.32.030 of the master tax schedule in CVMC 5.07.030.

The application for the license shall request the following information:

A. The name and address of the Person or Persons wishing to hold the garage sale;

B. The location where the sale shall be conducted, including a general designation of the area of the premises where the actual sale is to be carried out;

C. A general description of the property offered for sale;

D. The dates and time period when the sale shall be conducted;

E. An affidavit or declaration, under penalty of perjury, that the Person or Persons conducting the sale are the Owners of the property offered for sale; that all of the goods are secondhand; and that no more than one previous such garage sale has been held within the calendar year.

No more than two garage sales may be conducted by the same Person or Persons or at the same place within the same calendar year. A garage sale license shall be limited to a period of 10 consecutive days per sale. All Personalty and furnishings must be the property of those conducting the sale, and must be used goods. The license may be secured either at the office of the Director of Finance, or by telephoning the Director of Finance, who will mail the appropriate form to the party so requesting, and who shall, in turn, mail the completed application back to the office of the Director of Finance.
