Notification, Hearing and Decisions Basis: 264 1. Written Notice, Hearing: A decision to revoke, suspend, deny, or not renew a license shall 265 be preceded by written notice to the applicant or licensee of the alleged grounds, and the 266 applicant or licensee will be given an opportunity for a hearing before the City Council 267 before final action to revoke, suspend, deny, or not renew a license. 268 2. Decision Basis: The Council shall give due regard to the frequency and seriousness of 269 violations, the ease with which such violations could have been remedied or avoided, and the 270 good faith efforts to comply. The Council shall issue a decision to deny, not renew, 271 suspend, or revoke a license only upon written findings. 272 F. Affected MRD: The Council may suspend or revoke a license or not renew a license for part or 273 all of an MRD. 274 G. License Actions, Reapplication: 275 1. Suspension: Licenses may be suspended for up to ninety (90) calendar days and may after 276 the period of suspension be reinstated subject to compliance with this Chapter and any 277 conditions imposed by the City Council at the time of suspension. 278 2. Revocation, Denial, Nonrenewal: Licenses that are revoked will not be reinstated until the 279 owner has applied for and secured a new license and complied with all conditions imposed at 280 the time of revocation. Upon a decision to revoke, deny, or not renew a license, no approval 281 of any application for a new license for the same facility will be effective until after the 282 period of time specified in the Council's written decision, which shall not exceed one (1) 283 year. The Council shall specify in its written decision the date when an application for a 284 new license will be accepted for processing. A decision not to renew a license may take the 285 form of a suspension or revocation. A decision to deny an initial application for a new 286 facility will not take the form of a suspension or revocation unless false statements have been 287 made by the applicant in connection with the application. A decision to deny an initial 288 application shall state conditions of reapplication. 289 3. Reinstatement Fees: All new applications must be accompanied by a reinstatement fee, as 290 specified by Council resolution, in addition to all other fees required by this Chapter. 291 4. Written Decision, Compliance: Written decisions to revoke, suspend, deny, or not renew a 292 license or application shall specify the part or parts of the facility to which it applies. 293 Thereafter, and until a license is reissued or reinstated, no rental units becoming vacant in 294 such part or parts of the facility may be re -let or occupied. Revocation, suspension, or non - 295 renewal of a license shall not excuse the owner from compliance with all terms of state laws 296 and Codes and this Code of Ordinances for as long as any units in the facility are occupied. 297 Failure to comply with all terms of this Chapter during the term of revocation, suspension, or 298 non - renewal is a misdemeanor and grounds for extension of the term of such revocation or 299 suspension or continuation of non - renewal, or for a decision not to reinstate the license, 300 notwithstanding any limitations on the period of suspension, revocation, or non - renewal 301 specified in the City Council's written decision or in paragraph 6 of this Section. 302 5. New License Prohibited: A property owner who has a rental license revoked may not receive 303 a new rental license for another property within the City for a period of one (1) year from the 304 date of revocation. The property owner may continue to operate currently licensed MDRs if 305 the properties are maintained in compliance with City Codes and other applicable 306 regulations. 7
