§ 5-13.22. Employees—Permit suspension or revocation.

(a)

Work permits are subject to revocation or suspension upon a determination by the City Council or its designee that grounds exist which would justify the denial of an application for such work permit if such application were then pending. (See Section 5-13.19.)

(b)

Upon a determination that conditions exist which justify the suspension or revocation of a work permit, the City Council or its designee, in its discretion, may immediately suspend the work permit by providing written notice to the permittee of such suspension either by personal delivery or by certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the permittee at the address listed in the work permit application, or any more recent address furnished to the City by the permittee. The written notice shall specify the action taken, the reason therefor and the time and date of a hearing on such matter. The hearing on this matter shall not occur earlier than three (3) nor later than five (5) business days of the notice of suspension. The hearing shall be informal in nature, allowing first the City and then the permittee to present their versions of the facts. There shall be no right to cross-examine witnesses. The hearing shall be heard before the City Council or its designee who shall have the authority to lift the suspension, to continue the suspension for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days or to revoke the work permit. Such decision shall be final and conclusive.
