A. Any license issued under authority of any ordinance of the city shall be subject to revocation by the city council for the violation of any ordinance or regulation governing the manner or method of conducting the particular business to which such license relates, such revocation to be by resolution of the city council after a hearing by the council upon reasonable notice to the licensee or his agent in immediate charge of the business mentioned in such license, of any charge of misconduct or violation of the city ordinances charged against him; provided, however, that nothing contained in this chapter shall in any way interfere with the effect of a judgment of conviction by any court of competent jurisdiction operating to revoke any license when such judgment of conviction is based upon the violation of any ordinance relating to the conduct of the business mentioned in such license.
B. When any person to whom a license has been issued pursuant to any city ordinance has been convicted in any court of competent jurisdiction of a violation of any ordinance relating to the operation or conduct of the business to which such license relates, such judgment of conviction shall without proceeding before or action taken by the city council, have the effect of immediately revoking the license of such person, and the person so convicted shall not be granted another license to engage in the same business within the city during the period covered by the license so revoked, except upon the unanimous vote of the city council; provided, however, that in the event that the person so convicted duly perfects an appeal from the judgment of conviction, the operation of the judgment in revoking the license shall thereby be stayed until the determination of the appeal; provided, further, that nothing in this section shall be construed in any way to prohibit the city council from revoking the license upon proceedings before it as provided by ordinance. (Ord. 33 §H, 1956)
