§ 7-308 REVOCATION.

   The City Council may at any time for cause and on such reasonable hearing as it may prescribe revoke a poolroom license, and if the license of any licensee is revoked no license shall be issued within one year thereafter to such licensee or the partnership or corporation of which such licensee is a member, officer or stockholder. When the City Council finds that the application for license, upon which a license was issued was materially false in any particular, such license shall be revoked.
