The license collector shall investigate each such application in the manner and to the extent deemed necessary by the license collector to determine the applicant (or each officer, partner or principal) is of good moral character and proposes to engage in the business in a manner which is not detrimental to the public peace, health, safety, morals or welfare, either by reason of the character of the applicant or the nature of the business or the manner in which the business is proposed to be conducted. After such investigation, the license collector shall report his findings to the city administrator. If, as a result of such investigation, the city administrator finds that the applicant (and each officer, partner or principal) is of good moral character and that the business or enterprise will not be detrimental to the public peace, health, safety, morals or welfare of the city or its inhabitants, either by reason of the character of said applicant, the nature of the business or the manner in which the same is proposed to be conducted, the city administrator shall forthwith issue a permit, upon such terms, conditions and restrictions, as are not in conflict with any law, and as may be necessary or expedient to protect the public peace, health, safety, morals or welfare of the city and its inhabitants.
