A. Review Of Registration; Decision:
1. After a review of the registration statement to determine its compliance with this chapter, and within ten (10) working days of the receipt of the registration statement, the city manager shall either issue a certificate of registration, in the form provided by this chapter, or notify the person registering that the registration statement does not comply with the chapter requirements, and specifically point out what information or explanation has not been furnished that is required before a certificate of registration can be issued.
2. If the person registering is engaged in an activity for which a business license is required by this code, proof of a valid business license shall be furnished prior to the issuance of a certificate.
B. Revocation; Notice; Hearing:
1. A certificate of registration shall be revoked by the city manager if a registered person, or one or more solicitors engaged on behalf of that person, are convicted or plead guilty or no contest to a cumulative minimum of three (3) violations occurring within any thirty (30) calendar day period in connection with or on behalf of the solicitation of the registered person. A certified copy of the municipal court record of plea or conviction is conclusive proof that a violation has occurred. The period of revocation shall be for sixty (60) calendar days, during which the person may not receive a certificate of registration.
2. Within five (5) working days of receipt of notification that a registered person has been convicted, plead guilty or no contest to a third violation, the city manager shall give notice of an action to revoke in writing five (5) days prior to the effective date of the revocation. The person may appeal the manager's decision to the city council by filing a notice of appeal with the city within ten (10) days of the effective date of the revocation.
3. During the pendency of the appeal, the order to revoke is stayed. (1996 Code § 5.16.060)
