§ 5-27.08. Amusement device permits: Revocation or suspension: Hearings: Notices.

No amusement device permit issued pursuant to the provisions of this chapter shall be revoked or suspended until after a hearing before the Director of Community Development to determine good cause for such revocation or suspension, as follows:

(a)

Notices. In the event any commercial amusement activity is being operated, conducted, or maintained contrary to any provision of this chapter, the Director of Community Development shall serve a written notice on the permittee in the manner set forth in Section 5-27.09 of this chapter. The notice shall state the ground of the complaint against the holder of such permit and shall state the time and place where a public hearing will be held.

(b)

Public hearings. The hearing by the Director of Community Development shall be scheduled within twenty-one (21) calendar days after the notice referred to in subsection (a) of this section is served on the permittee. If the Director of Community Development, after hearing and receiving all evidence and testimony relevant and material to the charges offered at the hearing, finds that the commercial amusement activity has been operated, conducted, or maintained contrary to any provision of this chapter, the Director of Community Development may revoke such permit or suspend it for such time as he deems appropriate. Additionally, the Director of Community Development may place such conditions on the continued operation pursuant to such permit as necessary to mitigate the cause for the hearing.
