  • (a)

    Any holder of a permit whose permit is revoked under this chapter shall have the right, within ten (10) calendar days after receiving notice in writing of the revocation, to file a written appeal to the Council. Such appeal shall set forth the specific grounds on which it is based. The Council shall hold a hearing on the appeal within thirty (30) working days after its receipt by the City, or at a time thereafter mutually agreed upon, and shall cause the appellant to be given at least ten (10) working days written notice of such hearing. At the hearing the appellant or its authorized representative shall have the right to present evidence and a written or oral statement, or both, in both, in support of his appeal. The determination of the Council on appeal shall be final.

    (b)

    Any organization whose permit is revoked may not again apply for a permit to conduct bingo games in the City for a period of one year after the date of such revocation. However, if the reason for the revocation of the permit was because of the cancellation of the exemption granted under the Revenue and Taxation Code of the State, such organization may immediately reapply for a permit upon proof of the reinstatement of such exemption.
