The City Council of the City of Azusa does ordain as

SECTION 1. Section 6402 of the Azusa Municipal Code is
hereby amended to read as follows :
"6402. TAX IMPOSED.
For the privilege of occupancy in any hotel,
each transient is subject to and shall pay a tax in
the amount of five per cent of the rent charged by
the operator. Said tax constitutes a debt owed by
the transient to the City which is extinguished only
by payment to the operator or to the City. The tran-
sient shall pay the tax to the operator of the hotel
at the time the rent is paid. If the rent is paid in
installments, a proportionate share of the tax shall
be paid with each installment. The unpaid tax shall
be due upon the transient's ceasing to occupy space
in the hotel. If for any reason the tax due is not
paid to the operator of the hotel, the Tax Adminis-
trator may require that such tax shall be paid
directly to the Tax Administrator."
SECTION 2. This Ordinance, inasmuch as it provides for
a tax levy for the usual and current expenses of the City, shall
take effect immediately and the City Clerk shall cause the same
to be published at least once in the official newspaper within
fifteen (15) days after its adoption.
SECTION 3. The City Clerk shall certify to the
