Upon a finding by a majority of the members present at the hearing that a contractor has violated one or more of the provisions of Section 1327.08, the CLB may admonish, reprimand, or take other appropriate disciplinary action against such contractor including, but not limited to:
(a) Suspension of the contractor’s license for a fixed period not to exceed ninety days.
(b) Suspension of the contractor’s license for a fixed period exceeding ninety days, provided, however, the contractor shall have the right to have the suspension and the terms thereof reconsidered by the CLB at the expiration of the first ninety days and every ninety days thereafter to determine if just cause exists to modify or terminate the suspension.
(c) Such reconsideration may, at the Board’s option, include a hearing.
(d) Revocation of the contractor’s license for a period not less than twelve months from the date of revocation. A contractor’s license shall be revoked if the contractor has been suspended two times during any thirty-six month period.
Any decision of the CLB shall be made in writing and mailed to the contractor. A contractor whose license is the subject of a CLB action may appeal any decision of the CLB to City Council’s Planning, Zoning and Housing Committee by filing a notice of appeal with the CLB within thirty days following the third day after the Contractor Licensing Board’s written decision was mailed to the contractor as evidenced by a certificate of mailing which shall be included with the decision. When an appeal is filed, the secretary of the CLB shall forward the appeal and the CLB decision to City Council’s Planning, Zoning and Housing Committee together with the CLB record. Appeals to City Council’s Planning, Zoning and Housing Committee shall be de novo and no action shall be taken by the CLB during a pending appeal.
