(2) After March 27, 2014, any occupation tax imposed pursuant to this section shall make a reasonable classification of businesses, users of space, or kinds of transactions for purposes of imposing such tax, except that no occupation tax shall be imposed on any transaction which is subject to tax under section 53-160 , 66-489 , 66-489.02 , 66-4,140 , 66-4,145 , 66-4,146 , 77-2602 , or 77-4008 or which is exempt from tax under section 77-2704.24 .

The city council may provide that failure to pay the tax imposed pursuant to this section shall constitute a violation of the ordinance and subject the violator to a fine or other punishment as provided by ordinance.
(3) If any part of a business improvement district overlaps with a riverfront development district in which a general business occupation tax is already being levied pursuant to section 19-5312 , the city creating the business improvement district shall not impose the business improvement district’s occupation tax within the overlapping area.
