(6) On two or more occasions within a twelve month period, a person or persons committed an offense occurring in or on the licensed premises of a crime listed in Section 535.05 (a)(8)A for which a conviction has been obtained, and the person or persons were employees of the sexually oriented business at the time the offenses were committed;
(7) A licensee or an employee has knowingly allowed any act of sexual intercourse, sodomy, oral copulation, masturbation, or sexual contact to occur in or on the licensed premises; or
(8) A licensee is delinquent in payment to the City for hotel occupancy taxes, income taxes, or any other taxes or assessments which the City imposes, or sales taxes related to the sexually oriented business.
(c) The fact that a conviction is being appealed shall have no effect on the revocation of the license.
