(A) Grounds for revocation. Any license or permit issued under this chapter may be suspended or revoked for any of the following reasons:
(1) Violation of any of the provisions of this chapter or any rules and regulations either now or hereafter adopted pursuant hereto, or of any laws of the state;
(2) Permitting, aiding, or abetting the commission of any illegal act, or committing or attempting to commit any illegal act, on premises licensed under this chapter;
(3) Tattooing or body piercing any person under the influence of alcoholic or controlled substances; and
(4) Engaging in acts, conduct, or practices detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of any person in the city.
(B) Procedures. If the Board of Public Safety has reason to believe that a licensee or permitted has violated any of the provisions of this chapter, the Board shall immediately suspend the license or permit and give the licensee or permitted written notice in person or by certified mail, return receipt requested, of the suspension and of a hearing to be held within 14 days of the suspension to determine whether or not the license should be revoked. This notice must contain a statement of the facts on which the Board has acted in suspending the license. At the hearing, the licensee or permitted, and any other interested person shall have the right to present evidence showing cause why the license should not be revoked by the Board for violation of the provisions of this chapter or other applicable ordinances or statutes. If, after the hearing, the Board finds that the provisions of this chapter or other applicable ordinances or statutes have been violated, it shall send the licensee or permitted within ten days after the hearing a written statement of the facts on which it bases its findings and shall immediately revoke the license. If, after the hearing, the Board finds that the provisions of this chapter or other applicable ordinances or statutes have not been violated, it shall send the licensee or permitted within ten days after the hearing a written statement canceling the suspension of the license and stating that no violation of the ordinance or statute has occurred.
