6.06.060 - Revocation of licenses—Procedure for suspension or revocation.
Part of the Code of Ordinances of Commerce, CA.
The text
The city administrator shall suspend any such license issued pursuant to this chapter when he/she shall find that the licensee has violated any condition imposed upon such license or any provision of this code or any provision of law or is otherwise threatening the public peace, health, safety, morals or general welfare. The suspension shall become effective upon the mailing of written notice thereof to the licensee by the city administrator. Such notice shall state the grounds for suspension. If no appeal is taken from such order within ten days of the mailing of such written notice, the license shall be deemed revoked. If, within ten days of the mailing of the notice of suspension, a written appeal from such order is filed with the city clerk, the matter shall be placed upon the next most convenient city council agenda for hearing, at which time said licensee shall show cause why the license should not be revoked. The proceedings before the council shall be an informal administrative hearing and the rules of evidence, as generally applied in judicial proceedings, shall not be applicable thereto except that the substance of said rules shall be observed in conjunction with the evidence presented to the council for its consideration. Written notice of the time and place of the hearing shall be given by the city clerk to the licensee, and to any other person requesting the same in writing, at least five days in advance of such hearing.
