§ 61-23. CRITERIA FOR INVESTIGATION.
   The following criteria shall be considered by the Police Chief in conducting any investigation or making any report under § 61-22(a), and by the Town Commission when issuing or denying any application for a permit or for renewal of a permit under § 61-22(b):
      (1)    Whether any interested party of the applicant has been convicted of a specified criminal act, the number of such convictions and how recently they occurred. The term "conviction" shall include an adjudication of guilt on a plea of guilty or no lo contendere or the forfeiture of a bond upon a charge of a specified criminal act;
      (2)    Whether the applicant or any interested party was the permittee or an interested party of the permittee of a facility at the time such facility's permit was revoked under the provisions hereof;
      (3)    Any other factors which, in the exercise of their sound discretion, they determine to have an effect upon the public health, safety, morals or welfare; and
      (4)    If any of the factors in divisions (1), (2), or (3) of this section are found to exist, they shall consider whether such factors are related to the use or operation by the applicant or any interested party thereof of the facility for which the permit application is made or the use or operation by the applicant or any interested party thereof of any other facility and whether such factors evidence a flagrant disregard for the health, safety, morals, or welfare of such facility's patrons or employees, or of persons residing or doing business nearby.
