At any time that the City Manager determines that a person licensed under this title or other ordinance of the municipality has failed to comply with any requirement of law or with any provision of this title, the City Manager must request the City Clerk to notify the licensee in writing of the violation. The notice is to be delivered by the U.S. Mail or personally as the City Manager may determine and deposit of the notice in the U.S. Mail, addressed to the address stated on the license application, constitutes service of the notice. If the person cannot be otherwise found the notice may be posted on the premises licensed. The notice must require compliance with the provision of law, code, or ordinance specified within a reasonable time to be specified by the City Manager. Upon expiration of the time, unless the licensee has requested a hearing in writing, the City Manager, in the event that the license involved has been issued by the City Manager or Manager’s designee, may terminate the license, or in the event that the license has been issued by the Council, the City Manager must report the matter to the Council and the Council may thereafter terminate the license, subject to compliance with any procedure prescribed by the provisions of the ordinance pursuant to which the license or permit was issued.
