§ 8-314 HEARING.
   If a hearing is requested within the ten-day period as provided in § 8-310, such request shall be made in writing to the Governing Body. Failure to make a timely request for a hearing shall constitute a waiver of the person’s right to contest the findings of the public officer before the Governing Body. The hearing shall be held by the Governing Body as soon as possible after the filing of the request therefor, and the person shall be advised by the city of the time and place of the hearing at least five days in advance thereof. At any such hearing, the person may be represented by counsel, and the person and the city may introduce such witnesses and evidence as is deemed necessary and proper by the Governing Body. The hearing need not be conducted according to the formal rules of evidence. Upon conclusion of the hearing, the Governing Body shall record its determination of the matter by means of adopting a resolution and serving the resolution upon the person in the matter provided in § 8-312.
