The application shall contain the information set forth in this chapter and any additional information that the Board may require.
(b) A separate application shall be filed for each establishment for which a license is sought; provided, that a railroad company may file one application for all of its dining cars and club cars and a passenger-carrying marine vessel line may file one application for all of its passenger-carrying marine vessels and dockside waiting areas.
(c) An individual applicant, all of the general partners of an applicant partnership, all of the members of a limited liability company, or the president or vice-president of an applicant corporation shall sign a statement with an original signature, which may be a signature by wet ink, an electronic signature, or a copy thereof, certifying that the application is complete and accurate.
