(A) In the event any person holding a development permit pursuant to this chapter violates the terms of the permit, or carries on-site development in such a manner as to materially adversely affect the health, welfare, environment or safety of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the development site or so as to be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood, the Building and Zoning Administrator may suspend or revoke the development permit.
(1) Suspension of a permit shall be by a written stop work order issued by the Building and Zoning Administrator and delivered to the permittee or his or her agent or the person performing the work. The stop work order shall be effective immediately, shall state the specific violations cited, and shall state the conditions under which work may be resumed. A stop work order shall remain in effect until the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Board of Appeals at which time the conditions of § 114.094 can be met.
(2) No development permit shall be revoked until a hearing is held by the Board of Appeals. Written notice of such hearing shall be served on the permittee, either personally or by registered mail, and shall state:
(a) The grounds for complaint or reasons for suspension or revocation, in clear and concise language; and
(b) The time when and place where such hearing will be held.
(B) Such notice shall be served on the permittee at least five days prior to the date set for the hearing. At such hearing, the permittee shall be given an opportunity to be heard and may call witnesses and present evidence on his or her behalf. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Board of Appeals shall determine whether the permit shall be revoked.
