Editor's note— Ord. No. 13106, § 2, adopted Oct. 8, 2009, changed the title of § 31-50 from "Schedule of established local business taxes established" to "Schedule of established BTRs." The historical notation has been preserved for reference purposes.

Case Law reference— Imposition of large penalty upon nonpayment of tax constitutes conditions that would render payment of unfairly assessed taxes under Ord. No. 9188 (predecessor to 10303) involuntary, thus rendering the necessity to protest unfair taxes unnecessary, thereby allowing grounds for suit to reimburse merchants for amount of excess tax and attorneys' fees. City of Miami v. Florida Retail Federation, Inc., 423 So. 2d 991.
