When the conduct of any licensee, agent or employee is so inimical to the public health, safety and general welfare as to constitute a nuisance and thus give rise to an emergency, the Director of Finance shall have the authority to summarily order the cessation of business and the closing of the premises or to suspend or revoke the license.
Unless waived in writing, within five days after he has acted summarily, the Director of Finance shall conduct a special hearing for such action in respect to the summary order. Notice of such hearing shall be given the affected person in the manner prescribed in this article.
