If the commissioner has knowledge that a licensee under this chapter or any controlling person has been indicted or charged with any offense set forth in item (L) of Section 4-36-110 or with a similar offense under any State or Federal law and the commissioner determines that continued operation of the licensed business or activity may pose a threat to the public health, safety or welfare or may threaten to impair public confidence in the licensed business or activity, the commissioner may suspend the general contractor license of such licensee, in accordance with the requirements of Section 4-4-280, until final adjudication is made with respect to such offense. The subject matter of any hearing conducted under Section 4-4-280 shall be limited to determining (1) whether the licensee or any controlling person has, in fact, been indicted or charged with any offense set forth in item (L) of Section 4-36-110 or with a similar offense under any State or Federal law; and (2) whether such offense is connected in any way with an act related to general contracting; and (3) whether continued operation of the licensed business or activity may pose a threat to the public health, safety or welfare or may threaten to impair public confidence in the licensed business or activity. The burden of proving that continued operation of the licensed business or activity does not pose a threat to the public health, safety or welfare and does not threaten to impair public confidence in the licensed business or activity shall be on the licensee.
