(A) The Mayor or his or her designee shall revoke a permit if a cause of suspension in § 112.27 occurs and the permit has been suspended for any reason within the preceding 12 months.
(B) The Mayor or his or her designee shall revoke a permit upon determining that:
(1) A permittee gave false or misleading information in the material submitted during the application process which was intended to enhance the applicant's opportunity for obtaining a permit;
(2) A permittee or an employee has knowingly allowed possession, use or sale of controlled substances in or on the premises;
(3) A permittee or an employee has knowingly allowed prostitution on the premises;
(4) A permittee or an employee knowingly operated the sexually oriented business during a period of time when the permittee’s permit was suspended;
(5) A permittee has been convicted of a “specified criminal act” for which the time period required in § 112.23 has not elapsed;
(6) On two or more occasions within a 12 month period, a person or persons committed an offense, occurring in or on the permitted premises, constituting a specified criminal act 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. The fact that a conviction is being appealed shall have no effect on the revocation of the permit;
(7) A permittee is convicted of tax violations for any taxes or fees related to a sexually oriented business;
(8) A permittee or an employee has knowingly allowed any act of sexual intercourse, sodomy, oral copulation, masturbation, or any other specified sexual activities to occur in or on the permitted premises; or
(9) A permittee has been operating more than one sexually oriented business under a single roof, without proper permit, within the territorial or zoning jurisdiction of the city.
(C) When the Mayor or his or her designee revokes a permit, the revocation shall continue for one year and the permittee shall not be issued a sexually oriented business permit for one year from the date revocation became effective. If, subsequent to revocation, the Mayor or his or her designee finds that the basis for revocation under § 112.28 has been corrected, the applicant shall be granted a permit if at least 90 days have elapsed since the date revocation became effective. If the permit was revoked under § 112.28, an applicant may not be granted another permit until the number of years required under § 112.28 have elapsed.
