The license required by this division shall be renewed annually upon the payment of the prescribed fee in section 4-30 without further public hearings, unless it is revoked or suspended.
Upon application for renewal of a previously issued license, the director shall make an investigation and inspection of the premises, and, if he finds that the provisions or intent of this article are not being complied with, he shall make a finding of the violations and refuse to renew the license. The director shall first serve on the applicant a copy of his finding listing the violations and give him an opportunity to correct the same or grant him a hearing to show cause why the license should be renewed. If the applicant fails to correct the violations or to appear within ten (10) days after notice of such finding is mailed to the applicant, the director shall refuse to renew the license. (Mont. Co. Code 1965, § 75-40.)
