3. The licensee's violation of any applicable regulation or provision of this code or any other village code, ordinance or regulation.

6. A determination by the village manager, after investigation, that the licensee is operating or conducting a licensed business, activity or occupation in such a manner as to constitute: a) a breach of peace, or b) a menace to the health, safety or welfare of the public, or c) a disturbance of the peace or comfort of village residents.

B. Suspension: The village manager, after written notice to a licensee but prior to hearing, may suspend any license if the village manager determines that immediate action is necessary: 1) because the licensee is operating or conducting the business, activity or occupation in a manner substantially adverse to the best interests of the village, the village residents or the customers or clients of such business, activity or occupation, or 2) because the continuation of the business, activity or occupation for which the respective license was issued poses a present and imminent danger to the public health and safety. Notice to the licensee shall be by certified mail, return receipt requested. Suspension shall take effect after receipt by the licensee of the village manager's notice of suspension.
