(A) Procedure.
(1) Every short-term rental license issued under this chapter is subject to suspension or revocation by the City Administrator for any violation of this chapter or any other ordinance of the city or the law of the state.
(2) The Building Official may recommend suspension or revocation of a short-term rental license to the City Administrator. The City Administrator shall review the recommendation and the reasons supporting the recommendation and may suspend or revoke the license. The City Administrator shall provide written notice to the owner and agent of the suspension or revocation. The notice shall inform the owner and agent of the right to appeal the decision of the City Administrator to the City Council.
(3) Any applicant aggrieved by the suspension or revocation of a short-term rental license may appeal to the City Council. Such appeal shall be taken by filing with the City Administrator within ten days after date of issuance of the written suspension or revocation notice, a written statement requesting a hearing before the City Council and setting forth fully the grounds for the appeal. A hearing shall be held within 60 days of receipt of the request. Notice of the hearing shall be given by the City Administrator in writing, setting forth the time and place of hearing. Such notice shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the applicant at his/her last known address at least ten days prior to the date set for hearing.
(B) Effect of suspension or revocation. If a short-term rental license is suspended or revoked, it shall be unlawful for anyone to thereafter allow any new short-term rental occupancies of the dwelling until such time as a valid short-term rental license is restored by the city.
(C) Effect of revocation. No person who has had a license revoked under this section shall be issued a short-term rental license for one year from the date of revocation.
