  • "No sale shall be conducted for a time period longer than six (6) consecutive days for each license issued, except in extenuating circumstances caused by acts of God such as snow, rain or other natural phenomena.  The township clerk will have the discretion to extend the number of days so the actual sale can be conducted for six (6) days."  Sec. 66-31.  Conditions of licensing, Para (d)
