(A) After a review of the registration statement to determine its compliance with § 111.05, and, within ten working days of the receipt of the registration statement, the City Recorder shall either issue a certificate of registration, in the form provided by § 111.08, or notify the person registering that the registration statement does not comply with the requirements of § 111.05, and specifically point out what information or explanation has not been furnished that is required before a certificate of registration can be issued. If the person registering is engaged in an activity for which a business license is required by this chapter, proof of a valid business license shall be furnished prior to the issuance of the certificate.
(B) (1) A certificate of registration shall be revoked by the City Recorder if a registered person, or one or more solicitors engaged on behalf of that person, are convicted or plead guilty or no contest to a cumulative minimum of three violations of § 111.03 occurring within any 30 calendar day period in connection with or on behalf of the solicitation of the registered person. A certified copy of the Municipal Court record of plea or conviction is conclusive proof that a violation has occurred.
(2) The period of revocation shall be for 60 calendar days, during which the person may not receive a certificate of registration. Within five working days of receipt of notification that a registered person has been convicted, or plead guilty or no contest to the third violation, the City Recorder shall notify the person designated in the registration statement to receive notice of the action to revoke, in writing, five days prior to the effective date of the revocation.
(3) The person may appeal the Recorder’s decision to the City Council by filing a notice of appeal with the City Recorder within ten days of the effective date of the revocation. During the pendency of the appeal, the order to revoke is stayed.
