Prior to the sale or transfer by any operator other than receivers, assignees under a voluntary assignment for the benefit of creditors, trustees in bankruptcy, or public officers acting under judicial process of a parking facility, the parking operator, at least five (5) days before the sale or transfer, must notify the tax administrator of the proposed sale or transfer. Whenever an operator makes a sale or transfer of a parking facility, all fees and surcharges must be paid at the time when the tax administrator is notified, or, if the tax administrator is not notified, at the time when the tax administrator should have been notified.
