Appendix 3526. EMPLOYEE INFORMATION—CONDITIONAL EXEMPTION

The requirements of Sections 3523 and 3525(a) that names, addresses, and fingerprints of all employees of a licensed secondhand dealer be provided may be waived, in whole or in part, by the Director, in his or her discretion, where the applicant/permittee establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of the Director and Chief of Police that all of the following conditions are met:

(1)

The buying, selling, trading, or taking in of secondhand goods is not the primary business activity of the business establishment;

(2)

No sales of secondhand goods take place at the business establishment;

(3)

The owner and/or operator of the business establishment has obtained a secondhand dealer permit in accordance with this Chapter; and

(4)

Due to the limited nature of transactions involving secondhand goods occurring at the business establishment and/or the secondhand property handling and reporting procedures employed by the business establishment, there is a reduced risk for the business establishment being utilized as an outlet for the trafficking in stolen property.

Notwithstanding whether a waiver is wholly or partially granted in accordance with this Section, the secondhand dealer permittee and each employee thereof shall comply with all other requirements of this Part.
