A registration issued pursuant to this section may be revoked by the Building Inspector if he finds that the contractor is guilty of fraudulent use of his registration, incompetency in the exercise of the privileges of such registration, fraud or misrepresentation in securing the registration or permits granted under the Building Code, refusal to conform his work to the requirements of law, or breaches of such other duties placed on the contractor by this Building Code or general law. Any such revocation shall be preceded by written notice of the anticipated revocation sent by certified mail to the contractor's last known address at least fifteen days prior to revocation, but not before the Building Inspector has made every effort to serve the contractor in person. Such notice shall inform the contractor of the grounds for revocation and his right to an appeal to the Code Appeals Board. A revocation of a registration shall not entitle a contractor to a refund of any part of the fee.
If the Building Inspector refuses to register any contractor or if a contractor is notified by the Building Inspector that he was not in compliance with any provision of this article, such contractor shall have the same right of appeal as under a revocation of a registration. If any decision of the Code Appeals Board is adverse to any contractor, the contractor may apply to the Circuit Court of Harrison County for review of such decision in the appropriate manner within thirty days of such decision.
The Building Inspector shall advise the contractor of his/her/its rights under this section on any notice given to such contractor relating to the review of the Building Inspector's decision. (Ord. 6-88. Passed 5-24-88.)
