(a) The Mayor, at any time, may require the holder of any license issued under this chapter to appear before him or her and show cause why such license should be neither revoked nor suspended because of untruthful completion of the application upon which such permit was issued, conviction of a crime by the permit holder, repetitious crimes occurring upon the premises wherein such amusement devices are located or failure to comply with this chapter or any provision of the Building and Housing Code which relates to the use or operation of an amusement device.
(b) Such licensee may appeal such suspension or revocation to Council, which shall hear and determine all questions brought before it by appeal. Council shall affirm, reverse or modify, in whole or in part, the Mayor's decision, as Council deems necessary. No order of suspension or revocation made by the Mayor shall become operative until the effective time for filing such appeal has elapsed, and the filing of such appeal shall further serve to stay such order until a final decision is rendered by Council.
