§ 5.65.100. Swap meet—List of items—Lack of authority to sell.

A.

Each swap meet operator and display/selling event promoter for an event described in Subsections 5 and 6 of Subsection 5.65.010.E shall require swap meet and display/selling event vendors who propose to sell or exchange identifiable personal property to file a list of all such property, including all identifying information, on forms approved by the Chief of Police. The operator shall produce the list upon demand of any Peace Officer and shall further submit all such lists to the Chief of Police prior to the close of the next business day.

B.

Whenever the circumstances of possession of an item by the swap meet or display/selling event vendor would reasonably lead a prudent person to conclude that the swap meet or display/selling event vendor lacks adequate evidence of authority to sell, the Chief of Police, or his/her designated representative, shall mark such item with an identifying tag and the item shall thereafter be suspended from sale or exchange for a period of not to exceed thirty (30) days. The item shall be retained during the thirty (30) day period by the swap meet or display/selling event vendor.
