§ 9-120. Permittee entitled to hearing prior to revocation
Latest version.
No business tax registration certificate or permit shall be revoked or suspended until
said permittee has had a public hearing before the issuing officer and has had an
opportunity either personally or by counsel or by both to defend himself and present
evidence on his behalf. Such public hearing shall be proceeded by reasonable notice
as provided in these rules and regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the director
of finance may suspend, pending such a hearing, any business tax registration certificate
or permit where it has been determined that:
(a) Upon the recommendation of the law enforcement agency or upon the recommendation of
the city council that an immediate suspension of the business tax registration certificate
is necessary for the protection of the public health, safety, peace and welfare.
(b) In the event of such a suspension, the director of finance shall, within twelve (12)
hours after said suspension, cause to be served upon said business or permittee a
written statement containing the grounds for said suspension and a notice of hearing
to show cause before the issuing officer why said permit should not be permanently
revoked, which said hearing shall be held no later than five (5) days following the
service of said notice.
