follows:
"4.52.070 PEDDLERS AND SOLICITORS TO APPLY TO LICENSE
COLLECTOR FOR DETERMINATION OF LICENSE FEE OR
EXEMPTION—CERTIFICATE OF IDENTIFICATION FROM
POLICE DEPARTMENT.
In addition to the other requirements of this Code
and ordinances of the City of Anaheim and regardless
of whether or not any person may be exempt from the
payment of a license fee under the provisions of
Chapter 3.04 of this Code, by reason of being engaged
in interstate commerce or otherwise, every person
engaged in the business of selling or soliciting
orders for the sale of any goods, wares or
merchandise, magazines, papers, periodicals, or any
other form of occupation or business involving
canvassing and soliciting from house to house or place
to place, or upon the streets and public places within
the City, including any person engaged in the business
of soliciting or obtaining opinions, preferences,
endorsements or other information from persons within
the City, shall, before engaging in such business or
occupation, make application to the City License
Collector, and the City License Collector shall
determine whether or not all necessary license fees
have been paid by the applicant and if all necessary
fees have been paid or are tendered to the License
Collector and if all other requirements of this Code
have been met, the applicant shall make identification
I
to the Police Department, and receive therefrom a
certificate showing that such identification has been
made. Every such person shall identify himself to the
Police Department by signing and filling out an
identification blank which shall contain the following
information:
.010 Name;
.020 Age;
.030 Permanent address, if any;
.040 Local temporary address, if any;
.050 General description of the person, in such
further detail as the Police Department may require,
including fingerprints.
Upon making such application and identification and
complying with the provisions of this chapter, it
shall be the duty of the Police Department to issue
such person a certificate showing that such person has
complied with the provisions of this section; however,
such certificate shall not be issued to such person by
the Police Department until said Department shall have
received information, if any, on the prior criminal
record of such person from the Bureau of Criminal
Identification and Investigation of the State of
California. No certificate shall be issued to any
applicant whose record reveals a conviction of any
felony or any crime involving moral turpitude. Such
person shall thereafter retain such certificate and
have the same upon his person at all times while
engaged in any of the activities mentioned in this
section, and it shall be the duty of such person to
display the same to any party of whom he solicits any
business upon request therefor.
Nothing contained in this section shall be
construed to require a certificate of identification
to be obtained by any person licensed pursuant to any
law of the State of California which law requires that
said person be identified by means of fingerprints on
file with the State of California, Bureau of Criminal
Identification and Investigation, and which law of the
State of California provides that no such license
2
i
shall be issued to any person whose record reveals a
conviction of any felony or any crime involving moral
turpitude; provided, however, that such person shall at all
times have on his person, and in his immediate possession,
such license issued pursuant to said laws of the State of
California.
Nothing contained in this section shall be
construed to require a certificate of identification
to be obtained by any person eighteen years of age or
under who is enrolled as a full-time student in any
public or private elementary or high school, and who
has resided within the City for at least six months
immediately preceding the time said person is required
to obtain a certificate of identification pursuant to
this section."
SECTION 2. SEVERABILITY
The City Council of the City of Anaheim hereby declares
that should any section, paragraph, sentence or word of this
ordinance of the Code, hereby adopted, be declared for any reason to
be invalid, it is the intent of the Council that it would have passed
all other portions of this ordinance independent of the elimination
herefrom of any such portion as may be declared invalid.
SECTION 3. SAVINGS CLAUSE
Neither the adoption of this ordinance nor the repeal of
any other ordinance of this City shall in any manner affect the
prosecution for violations of ordinances, which violations were
committed prior to the effective date hereof, nor be construed as a
waiver of any license or penalty or the penal provisions applicable
to any violation thereof. The provisions of this ordinance, insofar
as they are substantially the same as ordinance provisions previously
adopted by the City relating to the same subject matter, shall be
construed as restatements and continuations, and not as new
