(A) Inspections.
(1) Whenever inspections of the premises used for or in connection with the operation of a mass gathering which has obtained a mass gathering permit are provided for or required by ordinance or state law, or are reasonably necessary to secure compliance with any ordinance provision or state law it shall be the duty of the licensee, or the person in charge of the premises to be inspected, to admit any officer, official, or employee of the municipality authorized to make the inspection at any reasonable time that admission is requested. Whenever an analysis of any commodity or material is reasonably necessary to secure conformance with any ordinance provision or state law, it shall be the duty of the licensee, or the person in charge of the premises, to give to any authorized officer, official or employee of the municipality requesting the same sufficient samples of the material or commodity for analysis.
(2) In addition to any other penalty which may be provided, the Town Council may revoke the mass gathering permit of any licensee in the municipality who refuses to permit any such officer, official, or employee to make an inspection or take sufficient samples for analysis or who interferes with such officer, official or employee while in the performance of his or her duty. Provided, that no mass gathering permit shall be revoked unless written demand for the inspection or sample is made upon the licensee or person in charge of the premises, at the time it is sought to make the inspection.
(B) Suspension or revocation of a permit. The Town Council may, after a public hearing preceded by notice to the permit holder and public, suspend or revoke any mass gathering permit which has been issued under this chapter on grounds that the music, dancing, or entertainment so permitted constitutes a detriment to the public health, safety, welfare, or violates the terms of the permit or this chapter or any other municipal ordinance or rules and regulations.
(C) Rules and regulations. The Town Council is hereby authorized, after public notice and hearing, to establish written rules and regulations governing the issuance, suspension, and revocation of mass gathering permits, the types of entertainment or gathering permitted, and other limitations on these activities required to protect the public health and safety and welfare. These rules and regulations may specifically determine the location and size of permitted premises, the facilities that may be required for the permitted activities on those premises, and the hours during which the permitted activities are permitted. Such rules and regulations shall be additional to and consistent with all sections of this chapter.
