Sec. B11-50. Exemptions from permit fees.

(a) The payment of permit fees imposed by Chapter II will not be required of any blind person if the person files with the Director a certificate issued by a licensed physician or surgeon or by the Bureau of Vocational Rehabilitation of the Department of Education of the State of California that he/she is a blind person.

As used in this section, "blind" means a person having central visual acuity not to exceed 20-200 in the better eye, with corrective lenses, or visual acuity greater than 20-200, but with a limitation in the field of vision so that the widest diameter of the visual field subtends an angle not greater than 20 degrees.

(b) Except as otherwise required by state law, any person or organization which conducts exclusively for charitable purposes, any activity defined in Section B11-53 of this chapter, from which no person benefits through the distribution of profits, payment of excessive charges or compensation will be exempted from payment of the permit fees required by this chapter.

Facts showing entitlement to this exemption must be shown by affidavit filed with the Director.

(Ord. No. NS-517.72, § 2, 4-15-03)
