A. Findings for Revocation. Any permit issued pursuant to the provisions of this chapter may be revoked by the planning commission or on appeal by the city council, upon finding either:

1. That permittee has failed, neglected, or refused to comply with and abide by any of the conditions of their permit;

2. That permittee has failed, neglected, or refused to comply with and abide by, or has in any way violated any of the provisions of this chapter, any other ordinance of the city; or any other law, rule or regulation, either directly or indirectly, by reason of, in connection with, or incident to his operations under the permit or upon the premises covered by such permit;

3. That any of permittee’s operations, or the continuance thereof, upon the premises covered by his/her permit are or are likely to become a menace or hazard to business, to any public property, to any interest of the city, or to the lives or safety of persons;

4. That permittee has made a willful misrepresentation of fact in any application for such permit or in any report or record required by this chapter to be filed with or furnished to the city by permittee.

B. Any permit, either in connection with a proceeding for the revocation thereof or otherwise, may be suspended by the commission or council upon finding that the operations of the permittee constitute or have become an immediate menace or hazard to commerce, to any public property, to any interest of the city, or to the lives or safety of persons. The suspension and/or revocation of any permit shall be made and accomplished in the following manner:

1. At a public hearing before the planning commission, the permittee and the public shall be given an opportunity to present information relevant to consideration of suspension or revocation of the permit.

2. Following the public hearing, or on appeal by the city council, notice of suspension and/or revocation shall be served upon permittee, stating the reasons and grounds upon which the proposed action is based, requiring permittee within fifteen days after, the service upon him/her of such notice, to cure and remedy any fault, noncompliance, or violation of any condition for which suspension or revocation of the permit may be made. Five days after the time herein provided for the curing of any default, or within any further times as the commission or council may have granted, has expired, said permit shall, without any further or other action of or by the city, be revoked.

C. It is unlawful to carry on any of the operations authorized by any permit during any period of suspension or after revocation; provided, that nothing shall prevent the performance of such operations as may be necessary for safety; or to cure and remedy the default, noncompliance or violation for which suspension or revocation was ordered. (Ord. 706 § 3 (Exh. A), 2019).
