The person shall furnish such list in writing immediately upon awarding the subcontract or contracts, and such person shall not allow the work under any subcontract to proceed until the subcontractor shall have exhibited to such person the subcontractor's City license to do business in the City for the current year.

It shall be unlawful for any such officer to grant any permit to any person unless and until the license shall be exhibited as required and recorded and indexed as prescribed in this subsection.

    (c)

    The official shall at once furnish a list of all subcontractors to the City license inspector, whose duty it shall be to see that all necessary licenses are secured by such subcontractors.
