A. Grounds for permit revocation. The director may revoke a permit authorizing house- to-house peddling or soliciting issued in the manner provided by this chapter if the director finds that:
1. The permittee was convicted of a criminal act involving fraud, theft, intentional infliction of bodily injury or other act involving moral turpitude within the preceding seven-year period which was not set forth in the permit application or revealed by the chief of police's review of local criminal records at the time the application was filed.
2. There is substantial evidence that the permittee committed a criminal act involving fraud, theft, intentional infliction of bodily injury or any other act involving moral turpitude subsequent to the issuance of the permit.
3. The permittee is engaging in house-to-house peddling or soliciting within the city in violation of the conditions of such permit or in violation of any federal, state or city law or regulation applicable thereto, and the permittee has been served with a notice by the director advising the permittee of the violation and requiring immediate correction thereof and the permittee has failed to correct the violation in the manner required by the notice.
4. The permittee is engaging in house-to-house peddling or soliciting within the city in violation of the conditions of such permit or in violation of any federal, state or city law or regulation applicable thereto, after having been served with two prior notices of violation by the director.
B. Notice of revocation. Where the director determines to revoke a permit authorizing house-to-house peddling or soliciting issued in the manner provided by this chapter, the director shall cause notice of the permit revocation to be served on the permittee in the manner hereinbefore required by this chapter. In such notice, the director shall state the reasons for the determination to revoke the permit and shall set forth the right of the person to whom the permit was issued to appeal such determination to the city council within the time and in the manner required by Chapter 2.80 of this code.
