No cardroom permit, or any interest therein, issued under the authority of this chapter, may be transferred from person to person, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in whole or in part, except as authorized by this chapter. Such permit shall not be subject to transfer to any other holder or operator through the levy of any execution by any judgment creditor or any judicial sale under any proceedings to enforce or collect any judgment, debt or obligation. The transfer of the cardroom activity to a different location may be approved by the chief of police provided the application or transfer fulfills all the conditions specified in Sections 5.32.040 and 5.32.050 for the issuance of cardroom permits and such location is allowed under Title 17 of this code (Zoning Ordinance). The transfer of a valid cardroom permit to another person may be allowed by the chief of police when the permittee is deceased and the executor or administrator of his estate has applied for such transfer within thirty days after the date of death, or when the permittee has become physically incapacitated so that he is unable to conduct his cardroom business and will be so incapacitated for a period of six months or more from the date of such application; provided further, that any such application for transfer of a cardroom permit to another person may only be made by or on behalf of a permittee holding a valid permit issued and unrevoked at the time of adoption of the ordinance codified in this chapter and not by the transferee or such permit or any other person; provided further, that any such transfer shall fulfill all the terms and conditions of this chapter for the issuance of any cardroom permit. (Ord. 96-18 § 1, 1996; Ord. 79-7 § 9, 1979)
