In order to prevent the illegal importation into the city of tangible personal property
which is subject to the tax imposed by this article, and to strengthen and make more
effective the manner and method of enforcing payment of the tax imposed by this article,
the director of administration is hereby authorized and empowered to put into operation
a system of permits whereby any person or dealer may import tangible personal property
by truck, automobile or other means of transportation other than a common carrier,
without having the truck, automobile or other means of transportation seized and subjected
to legal proceedings for its forfeiture. Such system of permits shall require the
person or dealer who desires to import tangible personal property into the city, which
property is subject to tax imposed by this article, to apply to the director of administration
or his assistant for a permit stating the kind of vehicle to be used, the name of
the driver, the license number of the vehicle, the kind or character of tangible personal
property to be imported, the date, the name and address of the consignee, and such
other information as the director of administration may deem proper or necessary.
Such permits shall be free of cost to the applicant and may be obtained at the office
of the director of administration.
