ENGINEERS' LICENSE LAWS 2G1 



Before any person shall be employed as an engineer of any 

 such steam boiler or engine, or shall have charge of or operate 

 any such boiler or engine, he shall make a written application 

 on blanks furnished by the city to said board of examining 

 engineers, for the license heretofore mentioned, which appli- 

 cation shall be accompanied by references as to the character 

 and ability of the applicant, and the filing of such references 

 with said board shall be considered as a compliance with the 

 provisions of this ordinance for 30 da. thereafter or until the 

 said application shall have been passed upon by said board, 

 and said applicant after the riling of said reference shall have the 

 right to operate and have charge of any such engine, boiler 

 or plant until his application shall have been passed upon by 

 said board. 



Every person who shall satisfy said board of examining 

 engineers that he is a safe and competent person to operate 

 and have charge of such steam boiler, engine or plant specified 

 in his application, shall, upon payment of $2 to the city clerk 

 as his fee, receive a license permitting him to operate the same 

 for 1 yr., unless such license shall be sooner revoked. For an 

 annual renewal of such license the licensee shall pay to the 

 city clerk as his fee the sum of $1 therefor; additional hearing 

 shall not be required, unless in the judgment of the said board 

 the same may be necessary. Such licenses must be framed and 

 hung in a conspicuous place in the plant, or upon, or near the 

 engine or boiler, in charge of such licensee. 



Said board may at any time after proper hearing revoke 

 any license issued on account of inebriety, incompetency, or 

 negligence of the holder of any such license, or for any other 

 good cause, and no license shall be issued to any licensee 

 whose license shall have been revoked for a period of 6 mo., 

 after which the license revoked may be renewed, if in the 

 judgment of the board the cause of its revocation no longer 

 exists. 



If said board shall refuse to grant to any applicant a license, 

 no license shall be issued to him for the next 6 mo. following 

 the refusal of said application, but after said period said appli- 

 cant may make another application, and, if qualified, may be 

 granted a license.
