A. The Columbus board of public works and safety or its designee shall revoke a permit if a cause of suspension in Section 9.30.090 of this chapter occurs and the permit has been suspended within the preceding twelve months.
B. The Columbus board of public works and safety or its designee, shall revoke a permit upon determining that:
1. A permittee gave false or misleading information in the material submitted during the application process that tended to enhance the applicant's opportunity for obtaining a permit; or
2. A permittee or an employee has knowingly allowed possession, use or sale of controlled substances in or on the premises; or
3. A permittee or an employee has knowingly allowed prostitution on the premises; or
4. A permittee or an employee knowingly operated the sexually oriented business during a period of time when the permittee's permit was suspended; or
5. A permittee or an employee has knowingly allowed any act of sexual intercourse, sodomy, oral copulation, masturbation, or any other specified sexual activities to occur in or on the permitted premises;
6. A permittee has been operating more than one sexually oriented business under a single roof;
7. A permittee has engaged in or attempted to engage in a transfer of permit in violation of Section 9.30.120 of this chapter.
C. When the Columbus board of public works and safety or its designee revokes a permit, the revocation shall continue for one year and the permittee shall not be issued a sexually oriented business permit for one year from the date revocation became effective. If, subsequent to revocation, the Columbus board of public works and safety or its designee finds that the basis for revocation under Section 9.30.100 of this chapter has been corrected, the applicant shall be granted a permit if at least ninety days have elapsed since the date revocation became effective. If the permit was revoked under Section 9.30.100 of this chapter, an applicant may not be granted another permit until the number of years required under Section 9.30.100 have elapsed.
