ORDINANCE NO. NS- 1646 PAGE TWO may be necessary for the service supplier to remove the exempt service user from its tax billing procedure. Upon receipt of such notice, the service supplier shall not be required to continue to bill any further tax imposed by this code from such exempt service user until further notice by the tax administrator is given. The service supplier shall eliminate such exempt service user from its tax billing procedure upon receipt of such notice from the tax ad- ministrator, no later than sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice from the tax administrator. Ail exemptions shall continue and be renewed auto- matically by the tax administrator so long as the pre- requisite facts supporting the initial qualification for exemption shall continue; provided, however, that the exemp- tion shall automatically terminate with any change in the service address or residence of the exempt individual; fur- ther provided such individual may nevertheless apply for a new exemption with each change of address or residence. Any individual exempt from the tax shall notify the tax adminis- trator within ten (10) days of any change in fact or cir- cumstance which might disqualify said individual from receiv- ing such exemption. It shall be a misdemeanor for any per- son to knowingly receive the benefits of the exemptions provided by this section when the basis for such exemption either does not exist or ceases. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this subsection, however, any service supplier who determines by any means that a new or nonexempt service user is receiving service through a meter or connection exempt by virtue of an exemption issued to a previous user or exempt user of the same meter or connection, such service supplier shall imme- diately notify the tax administrator of such fact and the tax administrator shall conduct an investigation to ascer- tain whether or not the provisions of this section have been complied with and, where appropriate, order the service supplier to commence collecting the tax from the nonexempt service user. SECTION 2: If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or portion of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the deci- sion of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of
