(c) The commission may require any registrant under this chapter to file an annual renewal report containing such reasonable information as it may believe necessary regarding the financial condition of such registrant and the subdivided lands sold in this State by such person. Each renewal report must be accompanied by a renewal filing fee of one hundred dollars.
(d) In order to carry out the provisions of this chapter the commission shall retain such fees and other funds which may come into its possession to defray expenses in the administration of this chapter.
