percentage of gross sales, or any other method

nature, so long as the amount assessed does not

measure of the fee to be the fair basis, he may
require the applicant to submit, either at the
time of termination of applicant's business in
the Village or at the end of each three (3) month
period, a sworn statement of the gross sales and
