Failure to comply with the provisions of this article or any section of this code, at the discretion of the Mayor and City Council, result in the revocation of a permit to haul and collect garbage and other waste materials. Prior to any such revocation, the permit holder, after notice, may show cause why such permit should not be revoked. The burden of proof is on the city to show that a violation by the permit holder of relevant ordinances has occurred. The standard of proof is a preponderance of the evidence; provided, that upon conviction of said permit holder by a court of competent jurisdiction of this state of a violation of any applicable ordinance, the city is deemed to have established a prima facie case against the permit holder and it then becomes incumbent upon his or her to show by preponderance of the evidence that said violation has not occurred.
