9-210 : Revocation of permit.
- Causes. The permit issued to any person or to any firm, corporation or organization under this chapter may be revoked by the city manager for any of the following causes:
- Fraud, misrepresentation, or false or misleading statement contained in the application for a permit.
- Fraud, misrepresentation, or false or misleading statement made by the permittee in the course of the business or conduct of a peddler, solicitor, solicitor for charitable or religious purposes, transient vendor or street barker.
- Any violation of this chapter.
- Any other conduct of the permittee that constitutes a threat to the health, safety or general welfare of the citizens of the city.
- The notice of revocation.
- City manager's option. The city manager shall have the option of revoking the permit effective immediately after notice, or effective after notice and hearing. However, the city manager shall revoke the permit effective immediately only after a written finding of the reasons that to delay the revocation of the permit would represent an intolerable threat to the health, safety or general welfare of the citizens of the city.
- Notice if the permit holder is a person. If the permit holder is a person, the city shall make a reasonable effort to personally deliver the notice of revocation effective to the permit holder. If the permit holder cannot be found after such reasonable effort, the notice shall be sent by registered or certified United States mail to the local residential or business address of the permit holder. If the permit holder has no local residential or business address the notice shall be sent to the permit holder's permanent address.
- Notice if the permit holder is a firm, corporation or organization. The personal notice provided for above may be given to the agent of the firm, corporation or organization, or to any employee or agent of the firm, corporation, or organization; otherwise, the notice procedure prescribed by subsection (b) above shall apply where the permit holder is a firm, corporation or organization.
- A transient vendor permit may be revoked if the property on which such vending is occurring has inadequate parking retained on-site for customers (either for an established business and/or for the transient vending activities), as evidenced by the creation of traffic congestion on adjoining streets and rights-of-way.
- Contents of notice and hearing. The notice shall set forth the specific grounds for revocation of the permit and shall set a hearing on the revocation on a date falling not less than five (5) nor more than (10) days from the date of the notice.
- Hearing on the revocation. At the hearing on the revocation of the permit, the permittee shall be entitled to respond to the charges against him or her and to be represented by counsel at his or her expense. The city manager's decision shall be final. (1999 Code, § 9-210)
